Hey Thomas, if you want information on the shipping and customs, I posted this the other day: > [@Can we enjoy with the OF when one is a European woodworker or machinist?](https://forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/can-we-enjoy-with-the-of-when-one-is-a-european-woodworker-or-machinist/2109/24): > > I live in Germany and since the machines come from Canada, and between the EU and Canada the CETA agreement applies, I only had to pay the German VAT (19%). DHL Express still took about 60 EUR for the customs clearance process. > > What was steep was the DHL Express shipping cost of 650 EUR for a Journeyman with QCW frame. > > [Onefinity states here](https://www.onefinitycnc.com/faq) that the [HS Code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonized_System) for their CNC machine is 8458190090. There is no entry for this on the [TARIC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TARIC_code) database of EU commision [available here](https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/dds2/taric/taric_consultation.jsp?Lang=en) but 8458190000 shows 0% import duty for Canada (thanks to [CETA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_Economic_and_Trade_Agreement)). If the machine came from the USA, third country duty 2.7% is displayed (because [TTIP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transatlantic_Trade_and_Investment_Partnership) has never come into force). > > The shipment consisted of four packages (weight and dimensions [described here](https://forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/total-packages-weight-for-journeyman-and-woodworker/10934/2)) > [@Can we enjoy with the OF when one is a European woodworker or machinist?](https://forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/can-we-enjoy-with-the-of-when-one-is-a-european-woodworker-or-machinist/2109/27): > > When the shipment tracking showed the packages were in Germany, we got an E-Mail from DHL Express (to the E-Mail address that you specified in the ordering process) with a payment request for the Import VAT. It was a link to a web page where you could use different payment methods. After we paid, the packages were delivered. DHL Express does the customs clearance process for you and adds a small fee for this service. At least this is how it was done in Germany. > [@rombel](#): > > I am looking for some exchange and tipps with owners in Germany. I share my knowledge, as far as I have some, in this forum. > [@rombel](#): > > Is it possible to write a personal message here? I couldn’t find anything like > that in the forum so far.
