Buying a guitar from Germany
Posted by Forever Luton on 12/3/2024, 18:44:42
Does anybody know if I was to buy a guitar from Germany for seven or eight hundred pound is their massive import taxes and shipping costs that you have to pay I have read some places you can spend a fortune and some places say it's notsay it's not
Recently used this website to send a parcel, much smaller than a guitar, to Finland but might still help with getting the best quote. Probably only useful if buying the guitar from a private individual rather than a business though.
You would have to pay VAT at least which is 20% of the combined cost of the guitar and shipping. It's possible there are import duties as well, although it might be zero - you would have to check that.
Looking for a new guitar myself, and due to the 'uncertainties' regarding duties/tax I decided to stick with UK only.
Quite possibly if you contact the shop/outlet where you're considering buying from, they may give you guidance and a possible quote including extra costs . . . obviously a private seller would be different.
Cheers mate that's really good of you but the guitar I am after is from an actual guitar shop but it is there eBay shop so I have messaged them just have to wait till they get back to me I suppose the only reason I want to get it is because the guitar is now a discontinued one and they only have one left
Cheers mate much appreciated I think it's up for about 750 pound on their eBay shop so I would imagine I will have to pay another 20% plus I think it's £20 shipping cost so probably not going to be worth doing it's such a shame as it's the color I want and you can't get it anywhere fender of stopped actually selling that one now
I play, and have imported quite a few guitars. I recently bought a guitar from China which got through customs without any chargers. It cost me around £500 so i was surprised.
