Custom Broker

RE: [spiers] Custom Broker

I looked at the duties for a product that we are thinking about. It says
if the product is under $1.75 then the rates are ..... and under $3.75
.... Do you know if the price for customs is FOB,CIF or Landed in
including duties?

for
the products or the total retail value when it hits the

market?

Transaction value, that is to say what you paid for it. Now this can be
a
complex area for your customsbroker, but for now and at this level just
figure what you paid for it, not what you will sell it for (retail).

Hi all,

I saw many messages talking about if the value of the shipment is less than
$2000, then it'd better to have it air-shipped directly
to your house. I have a question, this $2000 is the total cost you paid for the
products or the total retail value when it hits the
market?

Thank you.
