Bought a guitar off ebay was quite expensive, has got australia it is being held for gst roughly how much?

Question

bought from us to australia is being held in customs does anyone know how much it will approximatley cost?

Answer 1

They should have sent you a letter with the cost on it.  Or a reference number and a phone number to ring to arrange payment.  It also may have had an additional tariff on it.  Depending on the item

Answer 2

I dont quite understand what you are asking as your question is not very clear - but what I understand from what you have written is that the guitar is being held at Australian Customs because you need to pay GST on it?

In Australia, GST is 10% of the price of the product or service - You may want to speak with someone in Australian Customs to confirm this is all they require..... I hope this helps

Answer 3

Because we have a Free Trade Agreement with the US, you shouldn't have to pay any import duty. You should only need to pay GST at the rate of 10%.

BTW, if it's second hand, make sure customs know this. In Australia, GST is not payable on 2nd hand goods and that probably also applies to things coming in from overseas.

Answer 4

If I understand your question correctly 10%.
