TheCarbKid Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Hey guys, The tyre I dream of : Specialized Roubaix Armadillo Elites 25mm The reality : S.A don't bring it in... Has anyone here imported tyres ?? If so what is the import duty & surcharge ?? And what is this LBS tell me that the market for 25 mm is small ... The worlds moving over to 25mm and SA is behind ? Why doesn't specialized bring in Roubaix Armadillo ? SA doesn't have the best roads.. How can this not be an option XD Anyway if you guys have any experience with importing tyres please let me know!!!
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Tyres just attract the normal rates of VAT and a handling fee. There's a 10% surcharge on the VAT, so it's calculated at 15.4% of the value of the items, and depending on who you choose to deliver them the "handling fee" could be anywhere from R 50 to R 300.
