Importing duties and taxes are at the cost of the customer. Duties and taxes are not collected by Zulu & Zephyr at time of checkout.
Please ensure contact details including phone number are correct at time of checkout.
Duty is calculated against the value of the shipment contents declared on the commercial invoice together with any insurance and transportation costs.
Together these are known as the Customs Value. This value is then multiplied by the duty percentage of the HS code assigned to the goods.
Duty is a type of tax charged on products being shipped across borders and is controlled by the customs of each country/territory. The purpose of duty is to maintain fair competition between imported and local goods.
Tax is set at a national level and is usually charged at the point of sale for goods bought and sold in a country/territory. It is also applied to goods entering a country/territory, often at the point of importation or at the point of sale in the origin country/territory.
Zulu & Zephyr suggest using a duties and taxes calculator, generally found on government websites as an estimate of taxes to be paid on arrival into country.
If you refuse to pay these charges and your parcel is returned to sender, all shipping costs will be deducted prior to any refund being issued.
Zulu & Zephyr is legally required to declare the full value paid on shipments and must include an invoice for customs should they require it.
