RazzyBerry Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hey Hookah Lovers, I'm sending some shisha to a few different people in the US (from outside the US). Do you know if I'm going to encounter any problems with this? Taxes, turn backs, fines? Do you have a personal experience with it? Thanks tons, - Razzyberry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coleman Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 If you are asking for ways to avoid taxes please read the rules. You cannot get out of paying taxes in any legal way if you ship it and dont have to pay count yourself lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I may be mistaken on this, but as far as I know US customs isn't all that crazy like some other countries about tobacco coming in. Just need to be sure it is declared appropriately on the customs form. And yeah, as Coleman said we don't condone talk of avoiding taxes. I think you're just asking IF there is a tax... And I'm not positive, but I don't think there is. Then again, there hasn't ever really been much talk about people shipping tobacco INTO the States.

Extra Mint Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 In uk its £90 a kg for shisha, even if it has 1g of tobacco and 999g of juice they will charge tobacco tax on the whole 1kg. How much is it in USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoozle Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 With the way Canada reacts to tobacco being shipped [b][i]into [/i][/b]Canada, It seems they would pay you to ship it [b][i]out of[/i][/b] Canada. Just kidding, but why would you ship tobacco from Canada to the US? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazzyBerry Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Great, thanks guys! @coleman I'd love to skip past taxes, but since I'll be doing it for business that'd probably be a dangerous idea xP @chreees Good to know that USA makes it easy @Skoozle Actually, it's coming in mostly from the middle east xD I did some looking into the (impressively vague) federal documents on it, and found there is [i]some[/i] kind of tax...more info here: http://www.ttb.gov/main_pages/schip-summary.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
