I've bought a Propain Tyee CF 29" that's got a processing date of the 22nd of Jan, and my understanding is that this will now be subject to an additional (to the 19% German VAT ) 34% VAT/import duty when it arrives with me.

I'm planning on emailing and calling Propain to ask what's up, and if possible request that I can pay them a bit more to convert the German VAT already paid to UK VAT, and to pay for them to increase the shipping to DDP - hopefully this would mean an increase of only about 15% (+1% to cover the difference in UK/German VAT, +14% in fees and duty), rather than the 34% for UK VAT (considering we already pain German VAT at 19%), fees and duty.

Does anyone know how this is supposed to work now?

Do Propain bikes ship from the UK? If it was coming from mainland EU before, and still is, nothing will change.
