I was talking to somebody the other night about importing wine and they told me  it was 400 % unless it is sourced from a country where there is a Free Trade Agreement and then it is 200 %.
I don't know anbout beer tho.

Forget it.
You will never make enough to cover your costs.

It's a real shame really

ONLY 200% tax...........and with a FREE trade agreement

Thats because the "free Trade agreements" only cover Import Duty, not excise tax and VAT...

right..moreover they calculate the Excise Tax as if you had paid FULL duties.

Reckon for UK imports factor 2.3 on the CIF value as landed costs BKK.
