in Cutting tax
I ordered a new CR-10 Smart 3D Printer from China for around £500USD. It will be posted on 22nd May. I've tried to google but probably using the wrong search terms. Will there be import/VAT duty to be paid and how do I work out how much? I'm a stranger to this kind of thing and don't know what category a 3D printer would come under for tax purposes.
Does anyone have any advice on how to research this please?

There would appear to be no import duty on printers of any type, so you will be facing a 20% on top of the cost of the printer (including shipping costs) plus a fee by the currier to administer the payment.1
