You will not be paying to DHL/Post Office any further shipping costs. However, your government may still require you to pay customs taxes and other import charges to clear your parcel through customs upon arrival.
Here's why:
- Goods shipped from another country are usually subject to inbound duties and taxes. The customs duty is a tariff or tax imposed on goods when transported across international borders.
- The price of the goods you purchase does not include these duties and taxes.
- Shipping charges do not include prepayment for your inbound duties; thus, your country's customs may require you to pay these duties and taxes before they release and deliver your parcel.
- What is payable depends on the type of goods, their transactional value, and the package's weight.
- The shipping carrier will then remitted what they collect from you to your country's government on your behalf.
