Like everything in vaping it’s depends on a few things carrier , value , weight, what it’s classed as , we’re it’s from.

a lot of China companies ship the device to a third party in Hong Kong such as “ King De humidifiers “ then the items are classed as de humidifier parts and have a low value . Customs then tax it as that. You’ll then get a notification to pay import tax either from the carrier themselves or the import office at the holding station. Can be from £5 - £500


but I’ve had items sent that have sailed straight through end to end with no issues and have been classed as E cigs.

there isn’t a straight forward answer tbh.

Sometimes if a device has been sent to me I’ve been notified by ups that they require an ECID number and £12 tax for 1 device.

Aliexpress charges vat on uk orders so I've used dealers on it recently feeling quite confident that I won't have any problems and delays once it arrives in the UK, just be cautious who you buy from, I've used an outfit called Coolvape and been pleased with their delivery time and products, but there's many more.

Hmmm,,Ignore last post I assumed it was for personal use.
