Hello, does anyone know if there are any restrictions for buying coffee of the US roaster (eg 5lb bag) and sending it to the UK? Are there any tax, excise duty, weight limits etc?

Thank you

You will not have to pay anything to the delivery company to receive goods worth less than £135 unless they're gifts over £39 or excise goods (for example, alcohol and tobacco).
