Duties and Taxes

Duties and Taxes

I was charged duties and taxes by customs for something purchased online. Why wasn’t that included as part of the overall shipping costs?
Duties and taxes are not included in the price of the goods you purchase online.
When purchasing goods online, some or all of these goods may not originate in the country you reside in.
When goods are not shipped domestically (within your country) or within a single customs union, such as the European Union, you are liable to pay any inbound duties and taxes which your local customs authority deems appropriate.
To ensure the DHL courier can deliver your goods in shortest possible transit time, when we enter your country, DHL pays the customs authority immediately on your behalf for any duties and taxes that are due on the goods.
DHL only releases the goods to you upon the full repayment of any duties and taxes that were paid on your behalf.

 

Why do I need to pay customs duty?

Although you ordered and purchased the goods online, the goods are still subject to an import procedure to clear the shipment through customs. Clearance depends on:

  • The country of origin
  • The value including transport charges
  • The quantity of goods

The country of origin The value including transport charges The quantity of goods Each country has its own customs laws and the duties for different types of goods and values are set locally. DHL, like any other international transportation company, must adhere to local customs legislation and so DHL pays duties on the receiver’s behalf to clear shipments on arrival.

 

When making my purchase it stated the price includes shipping costs. Why was I asked by DHL to pay additional charges to have my package delivered?
You will not be paying to DHL any further shipping costs. Rather, you will be asked instead to pay customs duties, taxes and other import charges related to customs clearance in your home country, as per local regulations.

Tito Ciccarese

Tito CiccareseTito Ciccarese is an eclectic flautist, a capable performer in the Chamber Music field mainly thanks to the invaluable advice of Maestro Guido Corti. Born in Cesena in 1961, Ciccarese began his studies with Giovanni Gatti in his city’s conservatory, where he graduated brilliantly. He then perfected his technical and musical abilities with renowned flautists such as William Bennett, Auréle Nicolét, Patrick Gallois, and Jànos Bàlint. He has been a founding member of a number of chamber ensembles, with which he has performed many of the most important compositions for his instrument. His artistic activity is not limited to that which has already been seen and heard; his strong and original ambition has led him to explore unpublished repertoires and to establish unusual instrumental line-ups, as proved by the over 850 concerts performed in over thirty years of artistic activity. His innovative spirit has brought him to start cooperations with living composers, who have dedicated insturmental pieces to him, all performed for the first time ever.
