Re: [bdlug] [off topic] regarding tax on computer items
I would like to know too. It seems everyone is confused including NBR. The short answer is "Taxes, if any, are quite low on the import of PC's". This is what I know . 1. Computers are intended to be tax free according to govt policy 2. The notice/order to have computers tax free didn't mention retail it just mentioned import of PC's in part or whole, not the sale. 3. Customs assume that if the PC is to be sold, there will be a minimum 10% profit. 4. VAT is 15 % 5. Therefore 1.5 % tax is applicable 6. There are dual standards. So some imports are tax free, others are taxable. You can clarify from BCS. The long and short of the story is that tax rules (and all other regulations) are actually made by non-professionals without input/consultations from stakeholders of the industry resulting in a mess when applied in practice. Funnily enough, the government officials often accept that there's a mistake and apologize for not being able to correct it. Also need to clarify if CD's can be taxed? regds, ershad.

Re: [bdlug] [off topic] regarding tax on computer items
Yes! Some of my friends who ordered Ubuntu had to pay tax for the postal delivery, where I did not have to pay it!
