Customs & Tax
We don't add taxes, VAT, or other hidden charges. You pay us exactly the price we marked on website, i.e. item subtotal + shipping cost.
In most countries, however, you have to pay taxes or duties on imported goods. Sometimes goods under a certain value, or in certain categories, do not incur taxes.
The rules are different in every country. it's hard to offer advice about taxes in your country. As the buyer, it is your responsibility to find out that information before you order.
Here is some USA Tax rates for your reference. For other locations, please contact local tax authority for details.
