Importing of Toys vs Customs Duty around the World
This came to my attention recently after my loot from RK was sent and arrived in Singapore 2 days ago.
It's came to my own attention that it's been "Held at Customs".
Reason: I've exceeded the S$400 limit (note: Australia is A$1000, so consider you guys very lucky down under) and I am subject to pay my 7% GST charge for my items (cost including shipping charges).
This has really pissed me off as I've got a couple of parcels coming from TransformersClub especially Botcon 2011 items and the Exclusives which I believe will be stuck there too. Hence, tomorrow i'm expected to pay additional S$50-$60 to claim back my toys. Here i come "NOT-REFLECTOR"!!!
At this time, I will have to becareful of custom regulations hence the purpose of this thread.
Importing of goods for
- SINGAPORE: Must be below S$400 (inclusive of shipping fee) else GST applies
- AUSTRALIA: Must be below A$1000 (does it include shipping fee?)
Feel free to list the other countries or states if you do know any
