What is VAT and does it apply to me?Updated 2 years ago

"VAT, or, Value-added tax, is a consumption tax on goods and services that is levied at each stage in the supply chain where value is added, from initial production to the point of sale."

For the UK specifically, any order placed on our website with a total below £135 will have the 20% GB VAT charged at the time of checkout. Please note, however, that shipping companies may still charge extra import fees at their discretion, and Art of Play does not cover these costs. Orders placed on our website with a total over £135 will have the VAT charged upon delivery or during the time of processing at customs. All customs fees are the responsibility of the customer to pay.
