FAQs

Do the prices displayed include tax?

Yes – All prices displayed include VAT (Value Added Tax) at 20%. Orders placed outside the taxable shipping zones (including the Channel Islands) will not be charged the 20% VAT. Orders to residents of EU member states are subject to VAT at 20%.

Do I pay tax if I live outside the UK?

EU Residents: Orders to residents of EU member states are subject to VAT at 20% (Excluding Channel Islands)

Outside the EU: (including Channel Islands) Customers outside the EU are not charged the UK’s Value Added Tax (VAT) but are responsible for the payment of any local applicable taxes including import duties which may be charged by your border and duty authority directly to you on delivery. These charges will vary depending on your country of residence/delivery and are usually based upon your invoiced value. We cannot accept responsibility for these charges.

Please be sure to select the correct country in the delivery field – if you are in the Channel Islands, please select “Channel Islands” and not “United Kingdom”.

I live in the Channel Islands – why was I charged VAT?

If you have selected “United Kingdom” instead of “Channel Islands” as the delivery address for your order, our system will have automatically added VAT. This is incorrect. We will usually make a manual check and amend this before processing your order, but please let us know as soon as possible if you have been charged VAT or if we fail to make a correction to your order.

Have you taken money from my credit card yet?
