    Importing from china - licenses, tax etc

    Been doing this for years. DHL are quit egood as are UPS, make sure you get an online quote first though. How big is your package as a lot of shippers go off volume weight. for heavy stuff i can reccommend Arends International for anything over 100kg it may be worth shipping it by sea!
