<p>[QUOTE="DCCR, post: 8171725, member: 106566"]Import VAT on ancient coins into the UK is only 5%. If you get charged 20% then you can claim a refund of the overcharge. I've heard stories of people being charged 20% (it depends on the code put on the customs form) but it has luckily never happened to me. There appears to be a problem with Ebay in that they can only charge a blanket 20% for everything, but they are aware of the issue and you can also claim the money back. </p><p><br /></p><p>Books imported from the EU into the UK continue to be zero rated, so there should be nothing to pay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
