You UK guys are spoiled!!!! Our VAT went up to 19% this year!!!!

For everyone in the EU: There is no import duty on amateur radio equipment, "only" VAT (including VAT on the shipping cost). The correct custom codes to import at zero duty are as follows:

8517 6200 90 0  for complete transceivers
8517 7090 00 0  for antennas
85 17 69 90 90 0  for accessories, transceiver kits, etc.

It helps a lot if the shipper puts the customs number on the package and invoice, since it usually saves a trip to the customs office on this end.

P.S.: You U.S. guys are spoiled with your CHEAP gas prices...we passed $8 a gallon over here
