…….
Had to provide my NI number as my formal ID as well as providing the registration number for the company selling the parts.

Ah if only you had a Digital Starmer Card everything would be so much easier!  ;D

 ;D ;D
I very nearly posted the same but thought it may be perceived that I agreed with the Starmer card, and I wouldn’t want that.  ;D
No confusion on that front  :y

I suspect that I am over thinking this...

Basically I have purchased two things for my personal and non commercial use from a seller in Spain. They have zero rated the item because it's going overseas and is therefore exempt from Spanish VAT.

I am arranging the shipping of my item, using UPS as the agency for that shipment. In turn this is being delivered to my home address because it's my only address.

So in summary, my personal (ie non commercial) property is being collected from a Spanish address on my behalf to be delivered to me at my home.

As I understand it that makes me both the shipper and the receiver. The seller of the item is merely the collection address...

Or have I missed something? :-\

Obviously VAT will become due when it arrives in the UK. And I have no issues with this.

No that is correct, and hence why you only need a commercial invoice (with the details described already) and an appointed courier.

Ta :y

I popped into UPS in Feltham on my way to work and had a chat with them and they confirmed all of that.

Booked the collection and it generated the commercial invoice along with the shipping label. So all printed off and signed and just need to get them emailed over.

For the Declared Statement, I have written the following:

"I, me, declare.that these items have been purchased by myself as a private individual for my own personal  use and have no commercial value or purpose."

Think that covers it...
