Buying From Australia

  1. As anyone had any experience with buying products from Australia.Trying to find out what sort of import duties there will be on an exhaust system valued at £1800.
    I can't make heads or tails of the info. on line.
    If buying myself the postage will be £85 so £1885 in total.
    I have been quoted £2300 by a company in the UK who sells them plus will have peace of mind if any problems with the exhaust occurs.
    Can anyone shed any light on this.
    Thanks.
     
  2. VAT @20% + the import duty which is calculated using a code for the type of goods. From what I can see the duty is unlikely to be less than 2.5% so your total is £2250 + postage. No brainer IMO, buy from your UK supplier. Andy

  3. Thanks for that.
    Similar charges to the States then.
    I will go with the UK supplier.
