Import duty on bringing things from Spain?


Sorry if this is posted in the wrong spot. I have a co-worker going to spain in a few weeks and asked him to see if he could find a RG2570EX to bring back. Now these are about $825 list, what kind of import duty if any would he be charged bringing it back? Or is this even worth it?

You'd probably be better off going through Ishibashi if possible. There shouldn't really be a "duty" if it's shipped to the US, but there may be a slight customs charge. Shipping would be the worst part. I shipped a guitar to Spain about a year ago, and it was right around $180 or so with insurance.

I wasnt going to ship it since my buddy will be there. I was just going to have him bring it back. Any idea what a customs charge would be? I can't find the RG3270MTB or RG2570EXRB on Ishibashi. Do you think local dealers could special order?

Nobody is going to special order a non-US model.

10% is the duty.

I brought a classical back a couple years ago. As US citizens we we're allowed a certain amout duty free...I don't recall it being much, if anything, that I had to pay. You might check the US Customs web site for more info.
