I did indeed look up for UK customs and if correctly identifying the code for a graphics card (not easy) as 8471697000 It appears that only IMPORT VAT of 20% will be charged and no duty
however, I still haven't got a definitive answer from EVGA EU if they will not charge VAT for UK deliveries which should be the case. If they do then we will pay over 40% as customs will not refund the VAT wrongly charged.

My queue position is yet to come up so I have not gained first hand from EVGA, but I have ordered from Germany and nothing more was charged. I had also forgot to mention shipping lol but then that's not related to import fees ;)

Alright, fine, I switched as well. Let's see how it goes, nothing to lose really as I was aiming for a 3070 Ti. Would also be happy with a 3080 at that point I guess  10G-P5-3897-KR 6/10/2021 11:34:23 AM PT

ohnoplsno Congrats! Since yours was so early, it was probably in the top few for the KR model after you switched. For future reference, once you get it and you too should have a fan startup noise that is rather unappealing, mine now idles at ~800 rpm, better than the fan noise :) edit: also, 4000rpm fans are a proper jet engine
Thank you, will do! Unfortunately, my package seems stuck at clearance: "The Clearance process for this shipment is on-going with additional details required for clearance" I've already given my fiscal data... does anyone know what's going on?
Did you get it through? I needed to forward the invoice and product page to DHL for customs processing

Yes, after some hours, it cleared Taiwan and then Hong-Kong customs. Let's see in Europe. I think I'll have to send those documents too...

I can now clarify for everyone that the price you'll pay is what you see on the checkout. EVGA will charge VAT to all customers including UK and deliver "DDP". This is a great weight off my mind for sure :-) This is the reply I got from them: from_EVGA_Support_Team Many thanks for your reply. Since the cards are send directly from Taiwan, it is for all countries we do ship to the same, no matter if they are in European Union or not. So it will be still the same, you will pay VAT in checkout, we send the parcel with DDP (delivery duties paid) and there are no further costs to be expected at local customs.

Just in case those of you who expect wonders when choosing the 3080Ti, it's probably worth looking at this: Youtube = watch?v=Vtkk-_0jrPU and ... 3070Ti here: Youtube = watch?v=dQJwjxUB0LU

We already knew that a long time ago  I understand that *shipping from Taiwan* looks scary, but if folks would spend a few extra seconds searching this thread, they could have their answer. It's something that pops up every few pages. They have been shipping from Taiwan since before the pandemic, it's not something new. Also, in case DHL or UPS asks or try to charge you for VAT again, just contact EVGA EU and they will take care of it.

Knowing it's shipped from Taiwan didn't make a difference as I tried to find out specifically what the situation was with UK and import duties. I may have missed it but no one told me that these were sent DDP so I needed to know if there would be import duties

I specifically sent 1) this link: https://eu.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=08G-P5-3755-KRfor product description 2) eu.evga.com -> My EVGA -> My Order History -> Find the order and click Printer Friendly Invoice -> Ctrl + p, Destination Save as PDF And that worked for me :) I had to submit those once the card was in my country at customs. Good luck and hope you get to enjoy your 3070 soon :D

I had those docs ready but, in the end, no one asked for them! After the first hiccup in Taiwan (they needed my fiscal data), everything went smoothly. 5 days from Taiwan to Italy + perfect packaging (I'm obsessive about this). Now I only need to buy the remaining components, since my current PC is from 2007... I really appreciate your help and your original post. Without it, I wouldn't be here with my 3070 KR. Seriously, thank you so much!

I had a dent in my outer box, about 1cm long and not deep, luckily the product packaging was perfect :D And you're welcome :) Have fun putting a new system together, luckily for you, EU seems to have good supply of CPUs, especially AMD ones, which were/are(not sure about now) in very short supply in NA for many months while we could buy them retail at MSRP :D

How can you be waiting for more than a year if the cards haven't been out for even a year? ;)

May I suggest a change in topic's title? I totally skipped this thread because of the reference to 3080 and thought this was 3080 only related. If it was not for our friendly neighborhood amphibian Enewt, I would have never discovered this is the place to look at for EU notification… ^^;

I just follow BovineGamer's forum profile and recent activity. They constantly (well actually not during the last 2 weeks, guess just not any drop) provide correct queue status for europe.

There has been movement, Bovine has done a great job and could be busy with anything else. Element35 shows slight movement here and there...

Probably because EVGA has a binding contract with Scan which is one of EVGA's authorized resellers.

Yup, I'm aware.. It's more than likely that the KR variants of the 3060s and 3070s will end up dead sooner or later (or maybe they are already), but then again it's not that KL queues are moving either so..

Ye it sucks... I remember around May they advanced 40 minutes and I was only 3 hours far and full of hope.
