he parcel has now arrived in the UK, however, the fees for receiving it are very high.

I am being asked to pay UK import tax (20%) on the value of the item which you listed at JPY 7,700 (GBP48) and the value of the postage which you listed (according to HMRC/UK Customs) as JPY 16,200 (GBP100). This seems very high, is this correct? I have checked with both parcel force (who cannot find the postage value) and HMRC (who say the postage is JPY 16,200.


If it is correct, then because of this high postage value, the import tax is not only 20% of the parcel value, plus a handling fee, but also 20% of the postage. As a result, I am being asked to pay £43.88, and I paid £46.00 for the jars. As I am sure you can understand, this is simply too expensive a price for the items. So unfortunately the items will be returned to you.


I would appreciate a full refund. Can you confirm that you will refund me upon receipt of the parcel?



On my end I am sorry for not realising that the fee to me for this parcel would be so huge. It was also not clear on your amazon page that I might incur such high import costs in the UK. Are you aware of these costs to your customers?

It may be helpful for you to know that if you had shipped the items in 2-3 separate packages (each parcel value must be less than £15.00 I believe), then I would not have incurred any of these costs. Once the item value is more than about £15, then both tax (20%) and a handling fee (£8-14) are charged.
