The receiver may or may not have any sales tax depending on what State they live in. You as a seller will have to print up a simple invoice and attach to a pouch on the outside of the box to make things easy for all parties. Thanks, that's useful info! No concrete offers from Stateside yet, but plenty of interest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have an estimate for the duties and taxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Don, if you read the PM I sent you several days ago, it contains the approximate shipping weight and dimensions. Go to UPS or some similar carrier's website, and it'll work out a more accurate cost depending on your location. You'd need to check with your local Customs service to find out what the import duty or taxes might be.

pierreganseman Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 this is only from experience selling to USA a lot (bass dealer) - I do not work or have any connection with us customs however seems to be about 10% on top, it's done on a state to state basis 7 to 13% roughly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
