DDP Shipping to the UK — Duties & Taxes Included on Wholesale Crystal Orders
When you order wholesale crystals from us and ship to the UK, we offer DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping — all import costs are handled upfront so there are no unexpected charges when your order arrives.
What Does DDP Mean?
DDP stands for Delivered Duty Paid. Under this arrangement:
- We cover all UK import duties and customs fees
- We pay VAT on your behalf — you owe nothing at the border
- We handle all customs clearance documentation
- Your order is delivered directly to your UK address
Why Does This Matter for UK Wholesalers?
Since Brexit, importing goods into the UK involves customs duties, VAT, and clearance fees. With our DDP shipping, everything is calculated and paid upfront — what you see at checkout is your final cost.
What's Included in DDP Shipping to the UK?
- UK customs duties
- Import VAT
- Brokerage and clearance fees
VAT Number & Invoice
If your business is VAT-registered, you can enter your VAT number directly on the cart page at checkout. Your VAT number will be reflected on your invoice, making it easy for business accounting and tax reporting.
Guernsey (Remote Area)
Orders shipping to Guernsey (GG) are subject to an additional remote area surcharge of £15. Please also note that Guernsey is outside the UK VAT area, so import duties will apply — typically £10–20 depending on the order value.
How Is My Order Shipped?
We ship directly from China via dedicated air freight (专线空派). Your package is first sent to our UK agent, who handles customs clearance and last-mile delivery via DHL to your door. This means you never deal with customs directly and pay zero tax.
How Do I Track My Order?
You can track your shipment at: 17track.net — Sihai Inc
Tracking information is updated once your package arrives at the UK agent, which typically takes 8–12 days from dispatch.
Delivery Timeline
Most wholesale orders arrive at the UK agent within 8–12 days. Final delivery to your address is completed shortly after by DHL.
Any Restrictions?
DDP shipping to the UK is available for standard wholesale orders. For very large or custom orders, please contact us directly to confirm shipping terms.
