Buying from the USA

--- Quote from: S188 on January 21, 2008, 19:27:40 ---Would it be possable to ship it through another EU country? Maybe through one that has less import taxes from the US, then once its inside the EU and an EU country is happy with the import it should be alright to move around to other parts of the EU, ie the UK? I'm sure theres a loophole there somewhere, but I wouldn't know how to exploit it. Any ideas? (stuff from the continant certainly atracts less heat than stuff from the paranoid USA when it reaches the british ports.

The legal declaration of value for duty relates to the final destination. It is quite likely that the package will pass through a European hub before coming to the UK anyway. But the duty applied should be UK rates. Whether there is any way round this, I couldn't say.

Ship to a mate in southern Ireland then get the ferry over and pick it up thats how most of the jap imports get into the uk without duty :wink:
