    Hey guys,


    I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post in so apologies in advance if that's the case.

    Anyways, I want to buy this watch: http://www.bunkeronline.com/nimowabgo.html from the US delivered by USPS. I was wondering if they will charge custom tax despite me asking for the package to be gift wrapped. If this is the case, what is the rate at which it is charge?

    Many thanks.

    Yes, they will. It's not a gift, so you are liable for duty on it. You will pay duty plus a handling fee.

    Not exactly sure of the rate. It should be on the revenue website.
