Taxes to be removed on Laptops and Tablets says Finance Minister

[Chimera]

Once you have your legit documents you will be reimbursed. You need to get the customs entry from your courier providing they paid that duty on your behalf. You need printed screen shots of your online purchase and perhaps a printout of your credit card page showing the transaction . There's a process to query the charges at customs house

Question - How is right or fair for customs to declare their own value for an item that clearly has an original receipt (also pre-alerted)?

I ordered a headphones that cost $120 on Amazon, customs CIF value is $275 wtf.....ended up paying more than $1000 TT to clear it (yes more than the item cost, despite it weight 1kg).

I know it's a headache but I'm going to. dispute the charges. I just wondering if customs working by vaps when it comes to declaring a value.

The MSRP of these headphones isn't even close to $275, it's $199

because some dumbfvk of a customs officer liked it more than you, so we went up online and found the most expensive place on the internet he could find it and used that to value your item.... yes its bullsh1t and yes they do it to people and you just have to sit down and take it.....

I feel so, because there's a special edition of these headphones that cost $259 on Amazon, this is the standard regular version and even older model.

Regardless, it is completely wrong of them to just declare a value despite having an invoice in front of their face.

$2700 is a bold move. That's pretty close to the limit.

Nothing has changed to my knowledge but
Cell phone cases and accessories incur duty, VAT and OPT.
Screen protectors incur VAT and OPT.

A Microcenter is opening up in Miami at the Midway Crossings Mall late 2023 to summer 2024

It will be cheaper to fly to Miami, buy what you need and return same day, than use a skybox or purchase from a local retailer.

Happen to padna of mine as well.

They went shopping in dolphin mall over 20k usd in stuff.

Then went a nearby red lobster and come back and everything gone. When they gone 2 make a report the police tell them that's a normal thing that happens to foreigners

[pugboy]

them bandits have copies of car chipkeys or wha ?

[Chimera]

They had break a glass in my bredrin case. I feel it was someone in red lobster was telling their people about good vehicles to break into. Easy enuff to know if a crew come from abroad and did plenty shopping

[pugboy]

yeah dolphin mall is plenty tourist shoppers
