Anime Buying Anime Figure Toy PVC from Japan

[johnconstantine469]

Salaam,

I want to buy an Anime Figure Toy PVC Japan which will be shipped through Japan Post
Price of the figure is 20,680 JPY or appx. 190.64 USD without shipping
Problem is that will there be Custom duty or Taxes to be paid when it arrive in Pakistan Customs which is GPO
Can this item be considered as a valuable item according to Customs only Valuable items are considered to be paid duty which might mean High priced.



Please feel free to advise or give better options if there are

Many Thanks

not on these toys.
Even if there is, won't be more than 2-3K anyway.

just chill and import.

Only worry about these things when you're importing electronics. lol

my sister sent me an EMS parcel worth about 30K after the COVID restrictions were lifted from the postage.
the guy just handed me the package without any receipt.

Oh and the package was opened, inspected and repackaged though. Just be aware if you're importing something naughty.

I am trying to get from AmiAmi, they dont do undervalue or send as gift, only as sale of goods.
If our customs see the amount on invoice of Japan Post on the box, won't they try to add custom duties to it as it worth more than 20k pkr.
I heard that they put custom charges on anything if they like to and toys they also do but not sure, so it seems risky to me.
I ordered from them before but it was like 6000 pkr in 2020 jan , also got a nendoriod from Mandarake this month 12k but no duty on both of them so this one is pretty high price so thinking to get from another company which can do undervalue and send as gift

If have any suggestions, let me know

Thanks

Yes and i dont trust these customs ppl, you never what they gonna do with the package, place duty or not.
Dont wanna be slapped with duty amount which is higher than the figure price itself.
Yes also called Pakistan International mail office, they said customs duty is placed on valuable items which can electronics, cosmetics ,clothes etc.
Which can even be a toy as they said.
