- Payment: 100% advance. Letters of credit are available for bigger partner orders.
- Production and video inspection: we film every lot and every pack and send you the videos before anything is loaded.

Importing paving into the UK: the basics
- You need a UK EORI number to import.
- Import duty and VAT apply, depending on the commodity code and your status. Worked paving stone generally falls under heading 6802, but your customs broker should confirm the exact code and rate.
- Many UK buyers ask for test reports to EN standards. Ask us which reports are available for the stone you choose.
- Stone is heavy, so a container usually fills on weight before space. Plan a forklift or crane for unloading.
This is general information, not tax advice. Read our full guide to importing natural stone paving and the quality checklist.
