How to bring goods into the UK from any country, including how much tax and duty you’ll need to pay and whether you need to get a licence or certificate.
Follow these steps if you're moving goods permanently to:
- England, Wales or Scotland (Great Britain) from a country outside the UK
- Northern Ireland from a country outside the UK and the EU
What you need to do is different if you are:
- moving goods between Great Britain and Northern Ireland or from the EU to Northern Ireland
- getting goods through the post
- bringing goods in your luggage for personal use
- bringing goods in your luggage, car or van to use in your business or sell
- bringing in goods temporarily
- moving to the UK with your belongings
Be sure to check the full step by step guidance on importing goods into the UK on the GOV.UK website here if you will be importing goods post Brexit.
