Will I Have to Pay Customs or Import Duties?

Yes, you may be required to pay customs duties, taxes, or import fees on your order.

Who Is Responsible?

As the importer (buyer), you are responsible for any charges imposed by your country's customs authority. This is standard practice for all international purchases—not specific to Duluth Cycle.

What Charges Might Apply?

Charge Type Description
Import Duty/Tariff A tax on goods entering your country
VAT/GST Value-added tax or goods & services tax
Customs Processing Fee Fee charged by customs or the courier
Brokerage Fee Fee for customs clearance services

Important Facts

  • Charges vary by country – Each country sets its own rates and thresholds
  • Not included in our prices – Our product prices and shipping costs do not include these fees
  • Paid upon delivery or pickup – You typically pay these charges when your package arrives or clears customs
  • We cannot predict the amount – Duty rates depend on your country's regulations and the declared value

How to Estimate Your Fees

Check with your country's customs authority or use an online duty calculator. Common resources:

  • 🇬🇧 UK: HMRC
  • 🇦🇺 Australia: ABF (Australian Border Force)
  • 🇨🇦 Canada: CBSA
  • 🇪🇺 EU Countries: Your national customs authority

Can Customs Fees Be Avoided?

We cannot mark packages as "gifts" or declare lower values—this is illegal and could result in your package being seized.
