My mother, who well remembers the time of the public deficit, indignant: ... But the more attractive to have something that does not offer the Russian trade.
It is well known that many lines of fashion, accessories, perfumes and cosmetics sold in the U.S., UK or Japan. What's out there, designers are increasingly accompanied by the announcement of their new collections this message: ...
Even the largest bookstore capital can not be compared to the range with a network hypermarket Amazon. com, which are found in the catalogs of the rarest of films, books and music CDs. And compare the Russian second-hand shops with Abebooks. com and does not have.
But there are also online auctions! . com, where their products offer people from all over the world. From the American ... de, english eBay. co. uk and Canadian eBay. ca. Along with new things at online auctions can be bought and used, at a reasonable price. And here are most likely to detect the rare, long out of production items.
In Russia, trade in second-hand stuff is practically extinct, along with commission shops, but the rest of the world people are happy to acquire them. Indeed, in addition to unusual (or novelty ) of the goods in a foreign network customers shopping often involves just the price: in shops products under popular brands Gucci, Dior, Prada, Dolce. And as the price of a slightly used and sometimes new cameras and other equipment sometimes so enticing that the hand she reaches for credit card. Finally, western stores a couple of times a year grandiose sales, during which not hesitate to sell the stocks of the old collections at very ridiculous prices. Without any note of queues.
Foreign internet shopping has another obvious advantage. So, to buy a blouse U.S. company Victoria's Secret, do not need to go to America. To go anywhere do not need to. All that is required to complete the purchase, it's come to the site, register, to choose the goods and pay by credit card. It is tempting? . It remains only to consider the nuances associated with the work of Russian banks and customs.
If you are going to actively make purchases online, we must first attend to careful selection of the bank, a credit card which you intend to pay. After all, foreign stores to impose rather strict requirements cards, and with some caution keeping an eye on buyers from some countries, among which, alas, is still part of Russia.

Anyway, the ... But when custom detains your parcel quickly stop laughing, reviewing your favorite movie ... Besides the joy evaporates quickly on the money saved. After all, customs duties, VAT and service ...
How many -how many?.
Recently, my friend, to the Dorval site victoriassecret. com, placed an order worth approximately 10 thousand rubles, asking the shop to send goods by post, to avoid paying extra for express delivery. However, good Americans, wanting to please the customer, yet sent a package via UPS, so she came to Moscow just six days after ordering. However, the treasured box of shoppers did not give. Instead, she received notice that the parcel detained by Customs.
On the phone had received information about the cost of ... And the disgusting thing was the fact that pay and receive a parcel in the same place it was impossible. In order to make these procedures had to visit three different points. They say, lucky.
Muscovites know how much time and effort to require any movement in the city. And it is desirable to move quickly, because customs officials are working on week days and five nights, and later you can not even knock on the door. For those who value their time (and it's these people often opt for e-commerce ), Customs proposes a commercial solution to the problem: for a little more than the sum of two thousand documents can be obtained by e-mail, fill out and - attention! . Businessmen from the civil service promise to consider the paper in ... If after the procedure you do not have time to pick up the package within two weeks, still have to pay a fine for possession and.
What was the error of my girlfriends and have a chance to avoid such problems, and hence additional costs to the ...
According to customs laws in the country simplified procedure of customs clearance of parcels, and customs duties and taxes are not paid if the value of goods sent within one week to one consignee - the individual - does not exceed 10 000 rubles. If the amount is higher, the magnitude of the excess of the applicable rate of 30% of the value of goods.
Simply put, buying a laptop anywhere in the U.S. for $ 500 (about 13 thousand rubles), you have to pay 900 rubles in customs: ( 13,000 - 10,000 ) x 30. And still have to pay a fee for customs clearance at a rate of 250 rubles.
But all these calculations are valid only in the event that your package sent through the organization, which, according to the Universal Postal Convention, has the right to work with international mail (MPO). And so the right treatment in Russia has only one organization - Russian Post. If the parcel sent by courier or other similar organization, customs clearance is an entirely different order.
Well-known DHL, TNT, UPS, FedEx and other logistics companies are carriers and customs brokers, but do not have the right to registration of IGOs. Therefore, goods that are sent using these services, the total will be charged a customs fee in the form of duty, excise duty and VAT. In addition, it is necessary to pay the fees for customs clearance - 250 rubles.
Let's say you bought in the U.S. online store product that was shipped with DHL. The cost of a parcel - $ 250. The customs officer determines the HS code of the goods, the amount of import duty (for example, 15%) and the amount of excise tax. Well, let us assume that the excise tax for your purchase is not paid. Thus, the total customs payment will be 89.25 dollars: tax [250 x 0.15 = 37.5 ] VAT [ (250 37.5) x 0.18) = 51.75 ] fee for customs clearance (250 rubles). Exemption from customs duties performed only if the cost of a parcel below five thousand rubles.
That's why when sending goods valued at less than 10 thousand rubles is better to use the services of the state postal service - in cases where important issue price, and speed does not play a fundamental role. But even if the goods are worth more than 10 thousand rubles, it makes sense to calculate the sum total of customs payments and determine whether it is above the 30 % who have to pay when you send by regular mail. Perhaps the difference may not be very great, and will make sense to use ...
In addition to the cost should be taken into account and the reliability of the organization to which you entrust your parcel. Commercial carriers are brought home, and handed a parcel to the addressee on receipt. Stealing from the premises and it is almost impossible. But in the federal postal service, no, no problems occur, and so.
If you have received a parcel with traces of an autopsy, it must be accompanied by an act of customs clearance. This document does not? . By law, Customs is obliged to respond to your request within one month.

Typically, an online store immediately provide the buyer with information about the cost of delivery of the goods in his country. This figure may vary depending on weight and size of the parcel, but most often is taken into account only the amount of the purchase. Some stores announce «free shipping», ie the cost of shipping incur. But such altruists recognize until slightly.
The cost of sending the sender specifies a postal receipt. Clearly, if you bought the goods at the store, in the accompanying documents will be given exactly the price you paid.
Situation is somewhat different when shopping on eBay. The seller often has no idea how important it is for the buyer figure is referred to them in the receipt. Sometimes, guided by their own ideas about what to send an expensive postal workers would react more anxiously, the seller can easily evaluate the product in a kopek 200-300 dollars. But the customs, which can easily overestimate the goods bґolshuyu side, is unlikely to convince the opposite operation.
Some buyers are not willing to pay customs duties, foreign vendors are asked to specify a lower cost of purchased goods. In principle, it is often not only are sellers of eBay, but even the shops. However, they are usually located in China, Hong Kong, Singapore. American stores, and auction sales, as a rule, these tricks do not agree. But even if the seller refuses your request to understate the price of the goods, do not get carried away and claim the cost is too small. The customs office work is not stupid, and any customs inspector will draw attention to your fancy phone last model cost $ 50. Naturally, the price of your purchase there and then change to the side bґolshuyu. Inspector will be guided by the value of similar goods and the price of them listed in various directories.
In order not to attract too much attention of customs officers, the cost of the goods should be different from obscherynochnoy no more than 20%. Of course, on the same eBay you can buy different products much cheaper than it would cost in Russia. In this case, ask the seller to invest in sending an invoice, receipt or other proof of the value of the purchased products. Also, do not ask the sellers of expensive things to write in the word «gift» (« gift» ). The customs officer will miss a parcel with a gift in the form of a teddy bear, but the ...
Another little trick that is often used by buyers of eBay, - a request the seller to specify that the product was used or is inoperative. In this case, the customs officer can not be guided in determining the price catalogs, which usually indicates the value of new products.
Finally, the product can be divided into parts. For example, if you bought an expensive camera, ask the seller to send the lens is a separate parcel. First, it immediately reduced the value of each parcel, thus avoiding the high customs duties. And secondly, the device without the lens can not be considered workers, consequently, its price ( as, for example, spare parts) will be small even if Customs decides to count the cost. At the same time the main thing - do not forget that the parcel should be sent with an interval of more than a week, and given the characteristics of our mail, and did two weeks.
Be sure to ask vendors to clearly indicate on the invoice that the product purchased is intended for personal use. Are the contents of a parcel of doing business, also defines a Customs Inspector. At the same time it should take into account such factors as the nature of the goods, their quantity in one delivery and the frequency of MPS. By ... As the quantity of goods in one MPO, the homogeneous commodities ( one name, size, style, color, etc. n. ) In an amount exceeding clearly the need of one person and their family members, may be regarded as not intended for personal use. Similarly, can qualify for similar goods that are sent even if in small amounts to the same person at the same time or within one week.
If the goods are received by an individual under the ISA, the customs associated with the implementation of the recognized business, customs clearance of parcels will be evaluated differently. The amount of customs duties in this case may be from 500 to 100 rubles depending on the customs value of goods. If a citizen of such a solution does not agree, he can write a statement that the customs authority is obliged to consider.
Chances to prove their case are quite high, because the wording of the Customs Code is very vague and allow for a fairly broad interpretation of ... Dr.. What is meant by a ...
In fairness it should be noted that the cost of goods that are exempt from customs duties in transit in Russia is high enough. In many European countries without the threat of customs levies can be ordered abroad, the goods in an amount not exceeding EUR 20.
Internet knows no borders. However, things are purchased online, alas, quite material.
