Work out what a shipment will actually cost once it clears customs: duty, import VAT and the total landed cost, before you commit to the order. Built around the same CIF customs valuation method used by HMRC and the EU, which includes goods value, freight and insurance to the border.

PVA
With Postponed VAT Accounting, the £0.00 of import VAT above is not paid to the border agent. It is entered on your next VAT return as both output and input tax. For a fully taxable business, that will usually net to nothing in cash terms one return later. It still counts towards the total landed cost of the goods, but it is not cash you need on the day.
