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.

This is a good book that has been written about APEX. It's all useful for readers who want to learn from real-world apex and experience from writer.I really like Chapter 2 from this book. It gave me a lot of idea about APEX and SQL. If readers want to find a book about APEX. This is one book they shouldn't miss. However, Readers should understand what they will see in a book.Chapter 1: Prepare and BuildChapter 2: Leveraging the DatabaseChapter 3: PrintingChapter 4: SecurityChapter 5: Debugging and TroubleshootingChapter 6: Deploy and MaintainPrice!!! It's should cheaper. If it's during promotion. You don't should miss to get it.

Scott Wesley Dec 27, 2012

I've written a more detailed review on my blog, linked from my Amazon profile page.Buy this book. Perfect information if you are intermediate to advanced, but what should be a required read for all APEX technologists. Kudos to the authors & publisher.It covers a lot of ground, even the first chapter mentioned many aspects for consideration, ensuring the reader is aware of what to consider.Chapter 2 is the most brilliant, and people should read this a university/college/school if they really want to know how you can use Oracle well.The remaining chapters also have great content and effectively cover a large amount of ground, but you're ROI is in the first two alone.Scott

Michel van Zoest Jan 29, 2013

This book was written by 3 well known names in the Dutch APEX community. With knowledge from years of experience in APEX development and from within the Oracle company itself, this book already promises great things from the cover on.I think the authors have done very well in explaining how you can create better APEX applications. They give ample examples of why a certain approach is better than others and explain how to enhance the way you create applications. This goes from how to set up a good debugging environment to enhancing the security of your applications.The information in this book is a must-read for any beginning APEX developer, but helps experienced developers as well. I know that I learned some new things to make my life easier :-)

Piotr Jasinski Jan 29, 2013

I think this position is a must for APEX developer. It sums almost all you need to know about building proper APEX applications. Very good for beginners (with at least 1-2 applications created) and intermediate users. Advanced users should now this kind of things but remanding them from time to time is a plus ;)One thing is bad - the price of this book is to high (right now $50). But I'm from "poor" country and maybe it's just me :/
