Q: What should I know about customs duties and taxes for my international shipment?

A: Customs duties, taxes, general sales tax, value-added tax, or import tariffs may be levied by the customs authorities of the importing country based on the contents and destination of your shipment. If applicable, it is the customer’s responsibility to handle these payments. Please note that payments should not be directed to Ed Smart Parts; instead, they are to be settled either directly with the carrier upon receipt or through the carrier’s invoicing system.

Ed Smart Parts serves as a supplier of car parts and does not operate as a customs brokerage. We depend on the carriers we've partnered with to provide brokerage services. For any inquiries about your country’s specific import process, we strongly recommend reaching out to the appropriate customs authority within your country. It's essential to understand that the recipient assumes full responsibility for the outcome of the import process. Your proactive communication with local customs authorities will help ensure a smoother experience with your international shipment.
