| Good morning bricklinkers
I am a new store in the uk looking to shipping international as well as domestic.
How would I go about it as I am aware there is a IOSS number that is required.
Where would I find this from
Any help would be much appreciated

The key thing is that the IOSS number has to be sent electronically - it won't
suffice to put it on the package itself. Maybe someone who is more familiar with
how the Royal Mail operates can weigh in - in the US it means that you have to
buy the postage online, and not every vendor allows the IOSS number to be entered.
If you ship outside of the EU (e.g. USA, Canada, Norway) then you don't have
to worry about an IOSS number. BL will collect sales tax for the USA, and there
are no customs fees; but Canadian and Norwegian buyers will have to pay VAT/sales
tax and maybe customs fees as well.
