What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.

The book is an excellent guide to get you started with Google App Engine with Python. As the author mentions in the book, a medium-high knowledge of Python is required to follow the book. However the reader is not required to have any prior knowledge of Google App Engine. I have been using Python for a long time and this book was an excellent starting point to use Google App Engine. Also, a basic understanding of web apps is recommended.The first chapter helps the reader to get started with Google App Engine. It provides instructions on how to set up the runtime for Linux, OS X and Windows. In the following chapters the author implements a note-taking web application increasing chapter after chapter the features of the app and the complexity of the code, This lets the reader to gradually assimilate the new concepts showed in each chapters and to smoothly progress in the book. The firsts examples use the webapp2 framework while the last chapters use the much more popular Django framework.The book is well written, covers all the basic features of Google App Engine, and provides a lot of reusable code.

Python for Google App EnginePublisher Link: https://www.packtpub.com/virtualization-and-cloud/python-google-app-engine5/5 - Know Python prior to engaging in this book, no need for the Google App Engine experience though.The book as others mention creates a basic web application, then you learn more and go back over the content to create a more robust expandable application that uses the previous example. The book uses Google SQL Cloud, however I opted to just keep it on my local machine. Still worth checking it out though despite me not wanting Google to have any more of my data. As for the book itself, it's structured, logical, stays on track, and has a lot of up sides. My favorite part would be utilizing memcache and tracking connections, start seeing some strange stuff well you can now act on it or let customers know that you're experiencing issues and are working to resolve it. I'm also a very huge fan of the MVC pattern, so using modular design was also something that made me fall in love with this book even more. All in all I would highly recommend this book and can't wait to build up on top of what I've already learned.

Python for Google App Engine is a very understandable title, because of its explanation, this title is very useful for people who want to learn about how to use the WEB technologies, develop web sites with the newest technologies and the frameworks.The book has the basics to start learning how use the Google API to develop web sites with this toolsI really recommend the book because it helps me to learn about the Web Services like RESP API, I could understand the main idea of how the google framework Works.Applications are the main topic of this title, very interesting explanations, very useful for projects.Thanks

Overall this book provides good coverage of writing an app for Google App Engine using Python. The main shortfall of the book is that it is very terse on explanations and only has a single example which is built up over the chapters. The included code and example is very good so if you learn by examining other people's code with some additional explanation then this book is for you. The approach used by the author also means you have some solid python code to start your own efforts from. More explanations of alternatives and additional approaches would be helpful but all-in-all a very good value for those looking to use Python to build applications on Google App Engine.
