Home » Charity Tax Information » Import Duties
Those who import goods from outside the Customs Union of the EU will normally have to pay import duty and VAT. However, some goods can be imported free of duty and VAT if they are imported by a charity or certain other types of qualifying organisation and providing that there is no commercial intent by the donor.
See HMRC guidance on this topic for further information: Notice 317: imports by charities free of duty and VAT.
