  • What’s the current deal with Brexit and imports from EU? Want to order a pair of Officine Creative in from Italy, but don’t want to be caught by import/courier charges etc adding unknown cost?

    No UK supplier for a lot of their range, worst luck

  • If you're lucky the italian supplier has their shit together and just bill you import taxes included - this would be in their T&Cs. Officine Creative dont https://www.officinecreative.store/blogs/information/174007943-delivery-services

    So looks like 20% Import VAT on value plus possibly a handling charge from the shipper (usually £10-20). BUT the Italian supplier should bill you less 22% Italian VAT so may well end up cheaper than pre brexit. Make sure they deduct the Italian VAT otherwise you'll pay that plus UK VAT.

  • Amazing! Thanks very much. I’ve asked them about the Italian VAT, so will wait to hear. All a bit of a ball ache compared to how it was before!
