Will my parcel be charged additional custom and import charges?
Customs or import charges are not applied to orders within the UK, however they may be charged on international orders. We do not have any control over what these charges are, so we recommend that you research what they may be in your country before you make a purchase.
Note about EU orders post-Brexit: Please note that € prices no longer include 20% VAT. Your country will treat your order as an import. Your local authority may or may not charge duty. They will most likely require you to pay VAT on the value of your order. In addition, they may impose a fee for managing the import. Practically, this could mean that you will have to settle these charges before the local shipping service will deliver your order.
