United Kingdom

I've ordered £190 worth of herbs and incense from an online store in america... will I have to pay customs tax when they get delivered here in the UK and if so, how much would this be?

Is there any way of avoiding the charge? Could I ask the shop to write that it is a gift on the front?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I am doing some small business, which is strictly wholesale. In Dec2006, I sold out my product to my customers and invoiced them in Dec 2006. But I receive actual payment some in last December and the balance in January.
Also the invoices I received from my supplier were all dated in Oct2006. I paid my supplier, some in December and the balance in Jan too.
If my fiscal date ends on Dec31,2006, for money receivable and payable after Dec31,2006, should I roll the payment received from my customer and payment I made to my supplier after Dec31,2006 into fiscal year 2007 or count this money in fiscal year 2006?

Thanks for answering.

few years ago, my fella fell off ladders and smashed all his bones in his foot. he has never been able to walk properly again. his boss accepted negigence snd compensation was paid out recently. but during this time, he was on incapacity benefits and as soon as his claim money came through his solicitor took out a huge payment to repay every penny back to the dss which was quite a few grand. is this right or was he ripped off? surely the dss doesnt expect every single peny back he recieved via benefits? anyone out there know anything? we live in uk. he had to repay nearly 5 years of £100 per week. im ery confused and feel it should be investgated about. my fella believes every word his lawyer says but i smell something fishy

I have put down a deposit on a buy to let flat using the capital gain from my residential property. I have set up a business account for the buy to let so that I can declare rental income and expenses. Should I declare the capital gain for the deposit from the same business account or can I simply pay this out of a personal account as non taxable income?

Hi,
I have a question and needs an answer quickly for the meeting shortly. Let's say I get a rental car from Alamo or any other rental car companies at the airport. I rent the car monthly, let's say GBP600 plus VAT for example. I will get direct reimbursement from the company. Or I can use the company credit card to pay for this directly. Do I have to pay company car tax on it? for 4 months rental? or for 12 months rental? How about fuel benefit tax? Over 95% of the mileage are for business use. However, I understand that even for the commute between office and home, it's still considered as private mileage.

And if I do have to pay company car tax, how do they calculate the tax? Since I'll be switching to different rental cars every few months, how are they going to calculate the value of the cars for the company car tax?

thanks a lot!!

UK National Lottery London advised by e.mail that I won the prize 1 million UK pounds and they want me to send them 580 pounds to Scarlet Courier Ltd., England to meet expenses for courier service, insurance and VAT. Kindly advise whether this one is genuine or not. I am quite a poor man and it would be a stupendous effort for me to raise the loan from friends to pay to the courier service. Sincere advise requested.
Yours truly

I have been looking over my bank account statements and have noticed that a company I had went for an interview and was given the job has been paying me money but I never started with them.. They have been paying me £260 every fortnight totalling £780.. they had stopped paying 3 weeks ago so they have obviously realised that there was an error..

I am now starting to panic as obviously I have not worked for it so was not due it... both my partner and I use the bank account and we were not aware of this. what should i do
