Shipping to mexico. i am studying in mexiico an want ot buy a camera in the states and have it shipped here.?

Question

will i have to pay sales tax in the states and import duty in Mexico?

Answer 1

See if walmart.com has it and have it shipped to a walmart near you in Mexico if you have one.  That would be alot cheaper and easier.

Answer 2

Walmart won't ship to Mexico.  Yes you will have to pay duty.  And you should have it shipped ONLY by Fed-ex or DHL...not by regular mail.  This is going to be expensive.  If you know anyone coming to your area from the states soon, or anyone making a brief trip to and from the states, they could bring you the camera.  If there is a Sams or Costco where you are or near, check for cameras there.  Generally, however, cameras are more expensive in Mexico than in the states.

Answer 3

Is there a Mail Boxes Etc. in the town you're in?

If there is, they can set you up a mail box in a border town in the states.  Items can be mailed to it, then MBE walks it through customs and brings it to the MBE in your town.

Answer 4

Shipping anything from USA to Mexico is Veeeery Expensive! If, you or someone else is traveling they can bring it, otherwise, I don't think is worth it.
