Summer Holiday Duty Free

As of this year, travellers are permitted to bring back VAT and duty free goods to the value of £390. This is a modest increase on the £340 limit in place but is a significant increase from the £145 limit that prevailed for many years prior to December 2008.

The new £390 limit applies to any travellers to countries outside the EU, such as the US, Japan and Australia, who wish to bring items, such as electronic goods, perfume, clothes and souvenirs back into the UK.
