I bought something from Lik-Sang.com in July - they're based in Hong Kong.

The goods came by DHL and there was no customs charges. Result. Or so I thought.

I received a letter/invoice from DHL on Saturday charging me NO customs, NO import Tax but £10.72 VAT of said goods bought back in July.

Can they do this to me? Charge me so long after I received my goods?

I don't want to pay them if I don't have to, but I don't want to ignore it and get landed with a Court appearance date.

Please help, thanks

Not sure, but it does sound a bit dodgy. Sounds like they balls'd it up &
are trying to me you pay for it.

10/10
Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
Very pleased
Very pleased with the help given by your staff. They explained technical details in an easy way and were patient when providing information to a non expert like me.
