There is a change to import taxes for US customers, which came into effect in August 2025.
All orders will now be charged 10% import duty, in addition to any sales taxes that may apply.
Orders under £50 will be sent by international post, and the import duty on these is prepaid and included in the shipping charge.
Orders over £50 will be sent by courier (Fedex). Customers will need to pay the import duty of 10%, plus an admin charge of around $20. The invoice for the duty will be issued by Fedex (usually by email), collecting on behalf of the US government.
We have recently started working with a new distributor in the US, Accucraft trains, and it is possible to buy our controllers directly from their website (Live Steam Station).
We will keep an eye on any changes to the trade situation, and update this information as required.
