Customs

If I bring duty paid wine back from France for personal use, I don’t pay customs duty. What happens if I order say a case and have it delivered? Still for personal use. Presumably customs take their cut? How can I find out how much?

I’ve been going round in circles as the gov. Uk site seems to think anyone buying a case is buying to sell. I’m buying to drink!

    To avoid UK duty the booze has to be both for your own personal use and transported by yourself.
