Did you have to pay import tax on your PBP?

[aaditya]

Yup, about $112 (US), in local currency. Rs. 7,943. 
got mine delivered to India.

Hey Anuj,

Mind sharing the breakdown of the amount paid?
I am also from India and looking to buy, but $112 in import duties is too much.  

From what I have found on the internet, the custom duty + DHL charges in India should be around Rs 3678 ($ 52) using following breakdown:

CIF = Cost (199 $) + insurance + freight (39 $) = 238 $ * 71.38 = Rs 16988
Landing Charges = 1% of CIF  = Rs 170
Total = 16988 + 170 = Rs 17158
Basic Customs Duty on Laptops = 0% of (CIF+LC)
IGST - 18% of (0+17158) = ₹3088
DHL Disimbursement fee = Rs 500
DHL IGST = Rs 90


Total = Rs 3678 ($ 52)

France here :

Just paid 62.50€ = $68.9075
> Tax 45€ = $49.6134
> Dhl 17.50€ = $19.2963

Tax rate here is 20%, hence I paid on 225€ = $248.075
Yet I paid $213.97 for PBP + adapters, $252.97 including DHL shipment

Go figure what I really paid taxes for...

Waiting for collection tomorrow or maybe this evening (depends when they will drop it off at the locker).

I got mine delivered to my workplace in Germany (a bank) and didn't have to pay any taxes.
I'm very happy about this as was expecting 50euro.
I believe it was missed as I put the bank's title in the address.

No import theft for me, in USA.

Hi

I got mine yesterday. I'm located in Austria. Had to pay 15 Euros handling fee (not sure who charged that, customs or DHL),
plus 43 Euros European VAT. No import tax.

[Linux-Rob]

For me bit over 65 euros, VAT (or import tax) and DHL handling. In the Netherlands.

Yes, I paid $59 in taxes, and another $24 to Peru's Fedex subsidiary for "storage fees" while in customs.
