You can try this. Go to fedex.com in the ‘Ship’ menu for the duties and tax estimator. I don’t know the HARM codes for camera (is it?) but ran with my codes for $720.00 USD gettingThanks 300bar but i did try customs website, selected the item as a digital camera, price and date but i couldn't get a final figure, maybe my fault, i don't know.
Has anyone out there bought a £400 camera and had to pay duty and Vat? If so, how much extra did it cost you?
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
Duty and Tax Estimate
135.97 USD
However with the min of $1USD (I am allowed by FedEx to claim ‘free’ things are valued at)
Duty and Tax Estimate
10.14 USD
I tell my whining customers all the time, get someone in the country to send you this ‘gift’. Takes careful wording in the Customs Declaration tho, and keep your fingers crossed.
USPS makes it real easy to figure USPS ship cost, well with an estimated weight.
