When you import goods into a country, you are required to pay customs duty, or import duty. This is based upon the classification of the goods, and is usually worked out as a percentage of their value. When goods are sold, you have to pay sales tax. The amount differs from country to country, and is charged on all sales transactions as a percentage of the value of the goods.
