When you order in UK£ (GBP) and Ship to the UK, this is how prepayment of VAT = 20% works:

"Tax" displayed in your Shopping Cart and Order Confirmation is the VAT included in product prices (and your Order "Subtotal" less any promotional discount). It is not an additional charge.
Unless your Order Subtotal, excluding VAT, is £135 or more, then we pay what we collect directly to HM Revenue and Customs.

If your Order "Subtotal", excluding VAT, is less than £135..
- VAT applies, but Import Duty does not. Upon arrival in the UK, your order will be automatically cleared and handed over to Royal Mail for delivery.
If your Order "Subtotal", excluding VAT, is £135 or more....
- Both VAT and Import Duty applies. The VAT is collected by New Zealand Nature, but the Import Duty is not
- In the likely event that Royal Mail will require you to pay both the VAT and the Import duty, please do so in order to release your parcel for delivery BUT...
  - Please Contact Us at New Zealand Nature.
  - Tell us your order number and how much Royal Mail are asking you to pay and how they have presented it.
  - It is best that you email us a copy of the letter/payment request they have sent you and we will refund what you have paid as customs/import duty.
  - We apologise for the extra effort that may be required of our customers in this instance

When you order in NZD, AUD or USD and Ship to the UK, the arithmetic is a little different as follows:

When you select "United Kingdom" (or Isle of Man) as the destination, NZ or Australia GST is removed, before VAT is applied.
USD prices have no tax component. VAT is applied when "United Kingdom" (or Isle of Man) is selected as the destination.
