For non-UK EEC countries we will apply 17.5% VAT to goods and courier charges unless you can supply a VAT number, with registration details, that we can verify. If we can not fully verify your VAT details then VAT will be applied at 17.5%. The application of zero rate VAT to a shipment will be at our discretion under advice from UK Customs and Excise. If items are shipped at zero rate VAT you will responsible for accounting for VAT to your local authorities. No other duties or taxes should apply to products shipped to the EEC countries. USA - We believe that Raggedstone1 should not attract duty or a MFP (manufactured foreign product) fee above US $2. The postal service or courier may charge handling if there is a collection of such a fee. This is our understanding of the rules but you should make you own enquires to confirm this. Please give us feedback if you can confirm or add to this understanding. We are hoping to offer a "duty paid" price to the US, for Raggedstone1, once we have a definitive understanding of the rules. For other countries duties and taxes do vary. Applying duties and taxes may be collected by the courier, or postal service, from you upon delivery. Please check with your local authorities if you are unsure of rates. We will add more information as we find it out on other countries.   DERIVATIVE, TURNKEY or MODULE DESIGNS We are happy to offer derivative designs of Raggedstone1 to customers with special requirements. Subject to requirements and part availability we can usually deliver prototypes of turnkey custom designs in approximately 6 to 10 weeks. We can also offer custom expansion modules.
