Import tax on books from USA?
« on: August 09, 2016, 12:17:46 pm »
Before I do a long internet search - does anyone know if there are import duties/taxes on books (2nd hand via Abebooks) from USA to UK?

There is no VAT on books in the UK anyway, so I would say no.

I have bought via Abebooks and not had to pay extra.
