Finlaco Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi Just curious if anyone made a purchase from amazon (electronic), delivered to thailand and if you were charged import duties? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlaco Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 perhaps a little more detail? - when, what did u buy and what percentage were the taxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 computer things should have zero % duty. (Cameras: I don't know, Games should have high tax). but of course 7 % VAT on the landed costs (product+shipping, calculated at a wrong exchange rate). But I never tried what happens in real life, if they add some duty or not. Again because many people don't know: product price+shipping costs (actual or estimated, I don't know)=landed costs landed costs will be calculated to Thai Baht at an exchange rate which is very bad, as it is a medium exchange rate+safety margins. From that the duty will be charged. From the total (product+shipping+wrong exchange rate+duty) they calculate the VAT which will be added on top.
