Grovet Brexit Customs duties & Import VAT
Since 01-01-2021 import charges are due when importing goods into Great Britain from outside the UK. These charges include import VAT, customs duty and customs clearance.
The rate of customs duty and import VAT is depended on the HS-Code/Taric-code of the product being imported. All HS-codes of our Grovet products are also displayed on the invoice. The rates provided by the EU and UK can be found on:
https://trade.ec.europa.eu/access-to-markets/en/home
https://www.gov.uk/trade-tariff
If the products are of UK or EU origin they could be considered preferential origin and have a lower or 0% customs duty rate. Most Grovet products fall into this category.
Customs Duty is calculated over the value of the goods and transport costs. The import VAT is calculated over the combined value of the goods, customs duty and transport costs.
The clearance fee is calculated over the duties and VAT and is currently 2,5%.
