What is specific to UK
Coverage in UK
London, Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh and every other city and town on the same FedEx and DHL network; the box is delivered to the address in your account. Write the street, building number and postcode exactly as you would locally — that is what the courier relies on at the door.
Customs and tax in UK
The UK sits outside the EU and its rules are simpler: no customs duty on parcels whose goods are worth up to £135, and 20% VAT applies to every parcel (on the goods value plus shipping). Above £135, customs duty is added according to the type of goods. FedEx collects the tax before delivery with a handling fee starting at £10.50 for small amounts and £12.90 for amounts between £43 and £524. We prepare the clearance paperwork free of charge, and your purchase invoice travels with the shipment from the moment it leaves.
ID and billing
No tax number or ID is needed for clearance; your name, address and mobile number are enough. Your invoice is in US dollars exactly as the calculator shows, and your card converts from pound sterling at your bank’s rate; nothing is added after payment.
