Badger1979 New Member United Kingdom 9 Posts	Posted 02/19/2019 4:01 pm I have been reading on the HMRC website that you have to pay import VAT on anything over £15 imported into the UK. I am looking to buy some banknotes from the USA and have heard that you don't pay import VAT on banknotes as they are classed as art. Is this true? Any advice greatly received.

The items were posted International Priority, in a regular sized envelope, no problems. Report this Post to the Staff
Badger1979 New Member United Kingdom 9 Posts	Posted 02/20/2019 03:57 am Thanks for the help/advice. The seller did say that he has sent notes to the UK loads of times and none of the buyers has so far said they have been charged import tax. Report this Post to the Staff
