To all international buyers, please do not buy from LAAM PK as they will make you pay customs and duty charges. These can be paid by the business and reclaimed, which an individual buyer cannot reclaim resulting in an expensive purchase. Unexpected today I was taken by surprise as I received a letter from FedEx asking me to pay £111.59 for customs and duty charges. I have never had to pay these charges for any of the other Pakistani brands, hence, this was a big shock. I contacted LAAM PK and was told they have a printed “The order will be subject to customs and duty charges upon delivery, based on the tax laws of the shipping country.” I still fail to understand why these are not applicable to purchases from other Pakistani brands and why only LAAM, especially with the clothes coming from Pakistan. This means my dresses have cost me more than their worth, so what is the point in shopping from Pakistan if you are going to make the buyer pay the same price equivalent to one dress? Should have bought it directly from Mushq as they were offering full lining under the sleeves which was refused by LAAM PK and doesn’t have any hidden charges. Also, LAAM PK delivery time is 10-15 days as shown on their website, but this was delayed. They said the supplier is delaying them and when I insisted, I needed them for an event and should have made a direct purchase from Mushq, LAAM PK speeded things up. Please be vary and don’t be fooled by the delivery timescale given on their website. Overall, my purchase has cost me £217.42 (cost of dress including shipping) + £111.59 (custom & duty) = £329.01 which means each dress cost me £164.50. It is not worth it at all. The cost of one dress including shipping is £108.71, so you can see I had paid customs and duty more than the cost of one dress. My advice is to buy directly from the brands and don’t be fooled and spend your money well.
