In the Chancellor’s budget, plans were announced to remove the £135 exemption by 2029, but many UK retailers are actively demanding this to be implemented sooner. The burden of this change could most affect UK citizens. Keep the £135 exemption and not put duties on goods under £135.

Strengthen rules on collecting taxes on all overseas sales to UK under £135
We think that some companies do not comply with VAT rules on UK sales. Items under £135 are also customs duty-exempt under the De Minimis Rule. These taxes must be collected to prevent an unbalanced business environment for UK businesses.
Scrap the Immigration Health Surcharge for those living & working in the UK
We believe the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) is causing severe financial harm to migrants and their families. At present, the standard IHS fee is £1,035 per year. For a 10-year visa, this amounts to £10,350. We believe migrants working and paying taxes should be exempt from paying the IHS.
