Re: FEDEX Romania ask me abt. usd 2170 custom duties for import of a single QDX


 

Corneliu

(my Condolences ... read and guess why)

Looking at the numbers. I'd guess that "VT" or VAT Type? is declared wrongly (if I am correct) Romania has a max VAT of 19%? ...)
May well be that DT = Duties Type is wrong ... (Typo?) (...you are eu and lot's of people have different data already)

PENALTY? Most countries I know will have a pay date (due date) for taxes. Often 2weeks (1+ day) after finalization (NOT declaration by 3rd party).
Seems 15 days in also correct for Romania ... but THIS IS THE TAX OFFICE ... so maybe let them contact you directly for a rather smaller "penalty" and PROTEST!

In any case ALL THIS only applies IF you accept goods imported into Romania and take ownership.
If all else fails (you are consignee _not_ owner for tax purposes) Nilgun Summers (Hans's wife?) is consigner, hast most likely via contract paid TRA n= Transport already)

All the rest is (TNT <ahem>) Fedex "FCK-up"

If push comes to shove ...(fck Fedex/TNT !)... accept an impending "offer" of destruction by local tax office/Fedex in the process of you denying acceptance (and import into ROM)
... I am sure Hans (&Nigun) will be happy to find a much cheaper solution. (What a waste!)

IANAL ... I am not a lawyer...or in any way suggesting something to be done.??

I myself would only ACCEPT OWNERSHIP (and liability for resulting taxes) if correctly billed.

You should do what you decide.

73 and all the best
