International Tax & Import Duty Policy

At Brileon, we strive to provide our customers with transparent pricing and a seamless shopping experience. As part of our commitment to clarity, we’ve outlined the tax and import duty policy for customers purchasing from different regions, including the EU, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States.

Please review the specific policies below based on your location.

1. United States – Tax & Tariff Policy

Effective May 2, 2025, under the updated U.S. import regulations, Brileon has adjusted its pricing policy to better serve our U.S. customers. We now include an estimated tariff and import duty in the shipping and handling fee at checkout. This estimate is based on the current tariff rates imposed under the revised U.S. import rules following the elimination of the de minimis exemption.

This estimated fee is incorporated directly into your total at checkout as part of the “shipping and tariff” line item. As a result, you won’t need to pay any additional duties upon delivery.

We regularly monitor U.S. customs policies and adjust our estimates as needed to reflect current rates. Our goal is to offer clarity and convenience so you can shop with confidence.

2. United Kingdom (UK)

VAT:

  • For all orders under £135, VAT is included in the price at checkout. This ensures customers won’t be charged any additional taxes upon delivery.
  • For orders over £135, customs duties and VAT will apply at the point of entry into the UK, and customers will need to pay these fees directly to UK customs.

Customs Fees:

  • Orders above £135 may be subject to customs duties and VAT as per the UK’s customs regulations.

3. European Union (EU)

VAT:

  • For all EU orders under €150, VAT is included in the price at checkout. This ensures that customers do not need to pay VAT upon delivery.
  • For orders over €150, customers will be responsible for paying import VAT and any customs duties directly to the customs authorities in the relevant EU country.

Customs Fees:

  • Orders over €150 will incur customs duties and import VAT upon arrival.

4. Australia

GST:

  • For orders under AUD $1,000, GST is included at checkout, and no additional taxes are due upon delivery.
  • For orders over AUD $1,000, customers will be responsible for paying customs duties and GST directly to Australian customs.

5. New Zealand

GST:

  • For orders under NZD $1,000, GST is included at checkout, and customers will not need to pay any additional taxes or duties upon delivery.
  • For orders over NZD $1,000, GST and potential customs duties will be charged by New Zealand Customs upon arrival.

6. Canada

GST/HST:

  • For orders under CAD $20, no GST/HST is charged at checkout. Orders under this threshold are generally not subject to customs duties or taxes.
  • For orders over CAD $20, GST/HST or provincial taxes will apply, and customs duties may also be charged upon arrival.

Important Notes:

  1. Brileon is not responsible for any additional import duties or taxes (other than VAT/GST collected at checkout for applicable countries). These fees are imposed by the customs authorities in your country, and you will be required to pay them directly to the customs department upon arrival of your goods.
  2. Shipping Charges: Brileon covers the standard shipping fees, but customs duties, import taxes, and any other applicable charges are not included in the price of the product and must be paid separately by the customer.
  3. Customs Processing: Delays may occur at customs, and Brileon cannot control these delays or additional charges once the package has arrived in the destination country.
  4. Local Regulations: It’s always recommended to check with your local customs authority or government website for the most up-to-date information regarding any applicable customs duties, import taxes, or other fees that may apply to your purchase.

By placing an order with Brileon, you acknowledge that you understand and agree to the terms of our tax and import duties policy. If you have any questions or concerns regarding these charges, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
