Import Tax Issues under DDP Terms with no import customs duties and import VAT
Hi, i am the bookkeeper and deal with the VAT reclaim compliance from HMRC. Background: A UK company has purchased goods from China, with the terms of delivery being DDP.

If the seller has fulfilled their obligations under the DDP terms correctly, then the customs duties and import VAT should have already been paid by the seller.
