Import Duty

[Mr Magoo]

Anyone know what value of porn you are allowed to import before Customs charge you import duty.

When I was off to Holland a few years ago, I asked a family friend who works at a local airport for C&E and asked what the law was on such subject matter and was told: up to five different magazines, but no films as the films can be copied. This was 6 years ago so I'd imagine things are different now.

I believe the rule is that you can import goods to the value of ?10.00 without paying duty or VAT. Usually, VAT is far more than duty. However, we get a lot of parcels from abroad, and so far have never been charged anything.
