Thread: Importing Scope

There’s no GST or quibble at the border if the value is less than NZD 1,000. All of this is clearly explained on the Customs website. There’s a calculator on there that you can use to doublecheck.

It works because I have recently been importing various auto parts from different countries, landed value inclusive of shipping of less than NZD 1,000 and had zero problems.

Must have changed it
Was 400NZ$ or $60 collection (so if it was 410NZ$ for eg it would incur more than 60 - if it was a clothing item - less than 400 because Duty would be added before the GST calculation)
