US and Canadian prices before tax, and how to compare them
A US or Canadian tag is the price before tax. The checkout adds a combined rate that depends on where the item is delivered, so the tag alone cannot be compared with a price that already includes tax.
VAT vs sales tax price tags abroad: what each price includes
A pre-tax US price of 1,000 and a UK price of 1,200 look 200 apart. Add US sales tax at an illustrative 8% and the real gap is 120.
How import duty and import VAT are calculated, step by step
Import VAT is charged on the duty as well as the goods, so the tax compounds. On a 200 purchase with 40 of freight and insurance, the border adds 89.80.
