URGENT: As of December 13th, 2024 the new EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) comes into effect.
These new rules mean that all UK businesses, even micro businesses like mine, can no longer send parcels to the EU or to Northern Ireland without having a registered authorised representative resident in the EU whose contact details need to be listed on each and every product/package/label. These onerous requirements will hit small businesses like mine very hard.
I simply cannot afford to meet these requirements and so, very regretfully, will no longer be shipping to Europe or Northern Ireland after December 3rd, 2024.
If you live in the EU or Northern Ireland, please place your KNITSONIK orders prior to December 3rd so I can ship them to you before the new rules come into effect.
A note about customs charges, Europe and BREXIT
European Customers: please be aware that although the majority of my products are zero-rated books, you may still be charged Import Duty. My business is too small for it to viable for me to sign up to the IOSS scheme, which means I have no way of accounting for Export Duty on European sales. Therefore, if you are ordering from mainland Europe, there is a risk of unforeseen Import Charges. Hugest apologies but this is totally outside my control. Thank you for understanding, I am so sorry.
