Duty Charges/VAT on books

Is there 0% VAT on books bought from non-UK sites?
I have ordered a book for £45 from Amazon.com and I had heard the Duty limit had been raised to £120 so this will not fall into that trap so will there be any charges?
Cheers,
David

No VAT on imported books at all so you shouldn't receive any charges.
Just make sure it's just a book as sometimes DVD's, toys, CD's etc that may come with the book could make it 15% VAT-able.0
