Apart from tobacco, alcohol and perfume, you're allowed to in other goods worth up to £145 without paying any Customs Duty and VAT. If you bring in goods worth more than £145, you must pay Customs Duty and VAT on the full value of the item or items that take you over that threshold.
When you pay, they'll give you a receipt which you should keep as proof of payment.
