Retailer didn’t ship until 4th January.
DHL are now chasing for duty/vat
I have emailed explaining I purchase Pre-Brexit but they said as the sender didn’t post until 4th jan, I’m liable for the tax
can anyone confirm the rules on when tax is payable Pre/post Brexit? Is it on the purchase date or the shipping date?
