US Import Duty on Strobes from Europe

[ChipBPhoto]

Hi all,

 

Has anyone in the US purchased strobes shipped from Europe?  If so, what did you pay for US import duties?

 

Specifically, I am looking at strobes with a value of $2600.  I’ve done a good amount of research, but I cannot find anything other than a range from exempt ($0) to 10%.  I’m looking for something more specific.  
 

Thanks for any info you can share!

You could try the DHL shipment planner, you need to create an account , but I tried it and it seemed straight forward:

You need a HS code to determine what it is, I found this:

the US and European codes are similar, just read the sub type descriptions.

 

Give it a go and see what it comes up with.
