Import Tax Refund on Return of Imported Item Hi , Earlier this month I purchased some boots from Italy that were delivered and imported to the UK. I paid approx. £99 on Import Tax VIA DHL. My question is that if i return these to Italy can I claim a Import Tax refund? If so then how? Thank you , Luke

You can submit a reclaim if you re export within 3 months of the original import https://www.gov.uk/guidance/how-to-apply-for-a-repayment-of-import-duty-and-vat-if-youve-overpaid-c285 FYI the information is given for declarations using CHIEF or CDS . If this is a recent import, CDS w have been used for your declaration. Chief has been decommissioned.
