Landed cost estimator

Estimate the duty and import VAT payable in the destination country. Method: customs value = goods value + freight and insurance to the border; duty = customs value × duty rate; import VAT = (customs value + duty) × VAT rate. Actual customs values and rates are as assessed by customs.

Look up the destination tariff line; if unsure, start with 0 and compare 3%, 6% and 12%.

Importing under your own UK VAT entity with PVA, this import VAT is offset on the return rather than paid up front.

Importing under your own VAT entity, import VAT is generally reclaimable; under DDP it is borne on the importer side and not reclaimable.

Estimates exclude anti-dumping duty, excise, handling and brokerage fees, and special arrangements for low-value consignments. DDP quotations already include taxes and take precedence.
