Importing Tractors into the UK

[Lowland1]

I am having trouble selling tractors in Kenya so I am thinking of re-importing them into the UK and either selling them privately or trading them in. Freight in 40 foot containers isn't ridiculously expensive so if there aren't too many duties and taxes it might make sense. So does anyone have any idea of what it might cost to get them back in.

Does this mean the export of Massey Ferguson tractors is over? Might make them a bit cheaper if it is. Regards importing just contact HMRC I would assume

Duties are not a lot from US, check gov.uk for Kenya.

https://www.simplyduty.com/import-calculator/ you will need a value, best find the HS code eg. 8701.95.00.00 for tractors over 130kw. Is the UK best at the moment as I wonder if second hand values a little flat at the moment, Netherlands

Dont know your recent freight prices but heard of containers which were under a £1,000 12 months ago have suddenly shot up to £6,000

I would check before as it depends on freight being fairly cheap
