I've been offered a great deal on a 5D Mk II and a 24-70mm from Singapore (about £1800 all in) from a friend of mine who's working out there. Wondered if anyone could provide me an educated guess on how much I'm likely to pay in import VAT and duties?

thanks in advance
 
17.5% on the total and an additional 6% on the part covering the lens....don't forget, no international warranty on bodies.

My guess would be roughly £350, made up of about £30 duty on the lens + £325 VAT. I suspect you will also have to pay a handling fee to the courier. Hope this helps.
