No idea but you should be ready to pay customs duty in case you get unlucky as this product price is above the 5k exemption limit so if customs officer decided to inspect it closely & decide to do a google search for price then you will have to pay customs duty.

P.S. btw long time no see :)

No ,actually I was busy with work schedule these days. So this absence.
Never to forget YOU friend and the others too.

Moreover a bit distractred from this forum, as I am in TELEGRAM group ,busy testing different custom ROM's ported to my SRT.Phone a.k.a T5524 a.k.a rimo02a smartphone from SMARTRON.


Regarding payment of custom fees,it is really a sh!t if the customs officer closely inspects the product and charges me.:-(:pan:
Anyway,friend thank you for the response.

now you wait for 15-20 days. if they release it then fine, otherwise you may have to call them / visit them to inquire. they are probably suspecting the item is undervalued in declaration form or something. anyways, if they charge taxes, it may be 20-50%, depends on them. but they may not charge taxes at all, totally depends on them.

for high value items, courier services like DHL is recommended, they take care of the paper works themselves, which are required for high value items, and collect the money from your doorstep.

Actually logistics staff has declared the tablet at US $50.00 price in their form.
This was conveyed to me by Shenzhen BDF Touch Technology Ltd.,the seller.

What is this custom form shouldn’t it be filled by seller.

it's basically a form with recipient address and item details - description, value, weight etc. printed on it. sellers take the form print out and stick it on the packet. they never miss to do this.

but his case, the item value was mentioned $50, for a 8" tablet, which probably attracted their suspicion. they are experienced people after all, handing thousands of packets daily. they know which one to catch, which one to not.

you just wait, and keep checking tracker as i said. if you get charged you will get call from local post office. if you are asked of item value(which you wont be, anyways), tell the actual value. when you pay tax, get the receipt.

You can meet the officials,at least you can request them to lower the customs duty if they agree to tell you the exact amount at that time because it looks like you will have to pay some customs duty.
