Did you have to pay import tax on your PBP?

[swulff]

Ireland, 63€

Canada : CAN$56.60

In Germany I had to pay 55.70 EUR in taxes through DHL, agree on a delivery date and pay the delivery guy in cash (exact amount) hand to hand

Same situation here, except my PBP was stuck in Leipzig for a week because "they didn't believe I bought a laptop for only 200$" and wanted some proof.

If so, please post in this thread where you are located.

Thanks

I am located in France. I paid around 60 EUR

My PBP will be arriving on New Years Eve ;-) Sweeeeeet!

France:

€ 43 of taxes,
€ 17.50 DHL fees.

It is normal to pay taxes, on the other hand, 17.50 € of DHL fees, it's too much!

Everything is computerized, I don't see why we pay additional fees to DHL, there is no additional handling! Even in the event that they open the package, it is not worth € 17.50 to check the goods!

pine64.org should consider offering delivery with another carrier. Maybe see with Aliexpress? Large companies always have advantageous contracts with carriers.

Switzerland, I had nothing to pay, literraly 0.

This is very surprising considering we are outside EU and we always pay a lot of tax and tariffs on imported goods...

Maybe I just had a huge luck...

I can confirm this for Switzerland.

What a pleasant surprise

DHL ain't so generous with us Swiss after all, I got an email today asking me to pay CHF 38.95 (USD 40.-) online...

And keep in mind you already paid $39 for shipment through DHL, so why the additional cost ?
