Import Duty on electronics

I have same question , from Dubai to Pak .

Honda accord | vitz | Charade | Wagon R | Real estate | Dubai

~20% or nothing IF you are lucky. Try to get the items under-invoiced as much as possible (realistically), that would also help greaty.

Under-invoicing is illegal. Please do not advocate any illegal activity on PW.

Ahh, sorry.

P.S. @OP, some electronic items are exempt from duty. Laptops I know to be. Not sure about many other items, though.

each and every item has diffrent ratio of duty and taxes from 40% to 70% ....... invoicing is not illegle coz customs promote it by taxing system ..... if u will not then u cant sell it in market .......and customs are promoting it by the using of law 25a of the custom act 1969 ....

Marking it as gift will not help you evade duties. CD on speakers is 20% + you will need to pay 17% sales tax and I think there is a FED of 5%. So in total you will need to pay about 40% of the assessed value.

utrade.co - is website for tarrif and classification.

The value assessment depend on 'domestic situation' of the appraising babu, if he is in right mindset the condition of item can be translated to NEW or USED and depreciation will apply, if he suffered bad at home he can mark a scarp metal as new. - the discretion can be challenged if proof of purchase with model year is available.

or you can use sweet talk ( read cash ) to get assessment of value & duty classification suitable to your pocket.
