  • Customs tax for goods purchased online in US from India

    Hi,
    I just wanted to know, that if I purchased a Camera from an online store in the US and had it shipped by UPS (United States Postal Service) to India, would I be expected to pay any customs duty for it, and if yes how much would I have to pay?

    Also, where would I have to pay the customs duty? Will I have to collect the goods form somepoint after paying the duty or will the goods be delivered to me and then I pay the duty.

    Has anyone purchased good online so far in the US and have sent them to India. Whats been your experience.

    My camera costs US$ 234 inclusive of shipping.

    The last time I had someting delivered from the US was a book. It came by DHL, but was sent by someone from the US to me. So i'm not sure of the taxes etc etc.

    if its a brandnew you might be asked to pay for it. Heres a clue for you, your tax will be the % of the total on your reciept.

    But I seriously doubt if it reaches u in post, I would suggest you to fall back on private courier.
    NOT A LEGAL ADVISER
    USE IT AT YOUR RISK
