importing computer hardware from the US

Pósturaf Heihachi » Þri 04. Okt 2011 00:38

Hurro,

First never mind how you will actually import the hardware, I have a US address.

What is the cost of importing computer hardware from the USA ?

Guess the VAT is 25.5% and the toll is 30% + shipping fees ?

some herp told me that there is no toll on items like : single copu, sticks of ram gpus and ssd's ?

please share your story's on veteran adventures, importing hardware goods from US to Iceland.

you can reply in Icelandic or English.

Thank You.

I´m pretty sure there is no toll on for instance RAM... I think it´s just 25.5% VAT and some packaging fees :)
or at least that´s what it looks like on this site..

Like the others have said, no toll, but a 25,5% VAT.

Beware though that the VAT is computed from the total of the purchase price AND shipping/handling charges.

This. This is important. Since shipping fees can be quite high.

Item Price + Shipping x 1.255 =Total Price + 500 kr. if under 22.000 kr. + 2000 kr. more if above 22.000 kr.
