WHY LHK EXPRESS?

1.No Tax concerns 

Import taxes in the UK consist of customs duties and value-added tax (VAT). If the value of the goods exceeds £150, you are required to pay customs duties on the goods. The total value includes the product value, shipping costs, packaging costs, and freight insurance. Additionally, you must pay value-added tax. The current standard VAT rate is 20%. However, there's no need to worry, as most services provided by LHK Express already include taxes, alleviating concerns about customs imposing taxes on the recipient. Even for services that do not include taxes, 90% or more of the packages are not subject to taxation, which is higher compared to other courier companies.Please contact the  customer service for any concern on tax.

2.Shipping discount

For packages weighing 21kg or more, LHK Express Plus (UPS) offers the most cost-effective solution. Therefore, if a customer is sending a package weighing between 14-20kg to the UK, we typically advise them to add a few more items for their family and friends.For example packages weighing 21kg, the air freight quote for delivery to the UK within 1-4 days is HKD 1995 for drop-off at the counter and HKD 2100 for door-to-door pickup.Please contact the customer service for updated information on discount rate.

3.Fewer Package Restrictions 

Perfumes and mooncakes, which are prohibited from being shipped by Hong Kong Post, can be sent to the UK using LHK Express services.Please the contact customer service for more details on package restriction.
