ordering items and paying duties/taxes from Japan or overseas
I'm considering ordering a part from either a vendor here, or directly from overseas in Japan.
Have any of you ordered a part, and had to pay duties on it when you took delivery? I've read that I could pay anywhere between nothing, and 5% of the estimated cost of the goods. I've ordered camera equipment (valued between $300-800) from China, Japan, and other gear from eastern Europe, and have never had to pay duties or taxes before. |

Correct.
All depends on carrier + declared value. USPS will most likely not charge you. I got hit with a $32 FedEx Customs fee when I ordered 4 sets of the underpanels last year. -alex |
