How to import a small wood working machine from China

[Abunai]

Is there a way to purchase and ship an item from China and know the exact duty and import tax that will be added to it?

 

This is the item I was looking at.

Check the Thai Integrated Tariff Database http://itd.customs.go.th/igtf/en/main_frame.jsp

You're going to run into a TISI issue since it's electric. You'll have to pay through the nose to get it if they'll even allow you to. I do know how to get it without any hassle, though. Send me a PM if interested.

Same item available thru AliBaba.

I believe some of those sellers quote delivery with customs included.  Contact the seller.

Or find the same item on Shopee, made in the same factory by the same workers with the same components, but a different label slapped on it.

Shopee and Lazada use land routes that avoid customs issues so that is always an option. But sometimes the quality of these products aren't as great and sometimes the items are fake. I've had a few bad experiences buying overseas on Lazada so I now buy direct now and use the same forwarders that those Lazada sellers use.

Thanks for this info!  I will take a look at at these options and see if any of them will work.
