Import duties on cycling goods

[Pulse]

Has anyone brought in a cycle trailer, that could shed some light on import duties?  I'm looking at getting a Bob trailer or something similar, but can't figure out what the import duties would be

Does this Tax count for ordering from WISH online aswell ?

I ordered from CRC on Friday, and it shows shipment with Skynet, not DHL. Tracking is non-existent, so I have no idea where the parcel is now.

 

But that’s next week’s problem as I’m going away for a 6 days. Will chase it up with them if I don’t hear anything.

 

 

Edit: shipment arrived today 3-Apr. Payment made and will get the shifters tomorrow

Had the very same thing and it took 4 days for any tracking info updates, but they did eventually happen. Contacted CRC before the updates showed and they essentially asked me to be patient.

 

The down side is I found out today SkyNet's import handling fee is significantly higher than DHL at R350. My CRC invoice was not particularly massive (well at least I don't think so), so I suspect it's a flat rate.

 

Requests from SkyNet for an explanation of how the fee is calculated has so far fallen on deaf ears.

Is Duty on Helmets 25% or 44%? Whats the MOST I could expect to pay for this if I order it from CRC?

Did you ever find out the duty on helmets?

 Does it evolve the Gupta's

Only vat.

No, they get caught!

With the local increase in VAT, is the new total price calculation as follows:

TP = (Item price + duty) x 1.164

TP = (Item price + duty) x 1.164

 

VAT factor is 1.165 not 1.164.

 

Not that it makes a lot of difference.

Thanks. I based the calculation on what was available in the first post on this thread. While 0.001 will make a difference, as you say, it won't be that significant in the scheme of things
