I'll pay import taxes and VAT.
There are no import taxes for miners in Europe. Only VAT.
Surely there is only VAT to pay for EU, but is not it enough that you have to pay from 19% to 23% of the declared value? in some cases like if you buy directly from Bitmain you even pay 500 euros or more?
I paid 586 euros in France. No one will answer why i was so badly overcharged. I am reclaiming 100% though as a business expense.
I leave in French to and receive my D3 + PSU, is weird i only pay 516,94 euros per setup.
I tried contacting
rod@fedex.com and they will not respond. I'm getting very sick of the careless way business has been handled by customs and shippers in France.
Had the same happen to me on my L3's from Bitmain. The issue is that Bitmain provides you with a nice commercial invoice with low value, but on the shipping documentation they submit to UPS/DHL they list the value at the time of purchase. That is used by the EU importer team. You pay ~20% taxes PLUS charges for importing goods. It will be between 20-25% on top of your other charges. No way around it, except buying them as a business and reclaiming VAT (but that also makes the profit company income, thus taxable).
