Re: (OT) importing educational materials from the USA

[Guest guest]

Hi Margaret,

If it is books that you are wanting to import, they always used to be free of

VAT. I've ordered large quantities of maths books from Canada and they have

always been exempt. I presume that they still are - try looking on the customs

and excise website.

the UK attract Customs duties, VAT, handling or any other charges? Or are they

problem-free to import?
