United Kingdom parcels
Estimate the delivery-company charge on a non-gift, non-excise parcel. The UK runs below; dedicated calculators cover UK, US, Australian, Canadian, German, India. 2026 de-minimis rules are changing, so always confirm the current rule with the official source.
The estimate starts with item price plus shipping and insurance, then checks the destination's low-value parcel threshold from the rule file. Above the threshold, duty is estimated from the selected category bucket and import VAT is calculated on customs value plus duty.
Rules are tagged with the date they were checked and a link to the official source. We deliberately keep category rates broad until each is verified against the destination's tariff schedule.

The UK (£135), the US (historically the $800 Section 321 de-minimis), Australia (GST applies under AUD 1,000), Canada (CUSMA courier de-minimis of CAD 150 duty / CAD 40 tax from the US and Mexico), and Germany as an EU example (import VAT on all goods; customs duty above €150). These de-minimis rules are changing during 2026, so always confirm the current rule with the official source.
