€1000 (+€100 shipping) bike would have 19% duty = €209
Vat on €1309 would be €262
Handling charges approx €14
Total fees € 485

I ship bikes to and from the UK all the time.

Thank you. That's absurd, a 50% increase in a £1000 purchase. That's loads of UK businesses for whom export to Europe is no longer economically viable.

Yeah - it usually works out about 44% for bikes.. (1.2)^2=1.44
