What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

Vedette Bianciotti May 10, 2013

This book is an update to a previous edition and most if not all of the major updates from Jira 4 to 5 have been included. Screenshots, installation changes and general workflow.An improvement over the last title is the inclusion of GreenHopper and agile development. That said, this could be a little longer but is a nice start and a good place to begin before jumping to the docs and tutorials around the web.Overall, very good book on Jira and one worth having around the office especially for the newer members of a team who may not have used Jira lots.

Very useful.Easy to follow.

Ellen Feaheny May 30, 2014

Great for beginners for learning, and advanced for printed quick-ref.For JIRA 6, Patrick moved to video - Might be another useful tool - even though much in this book is VERY valid still.

Koshoshi Nov 12, 2013
