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:

I've struggled with web forms, for some reason, so was happy when I ran across this book. Not by accident, as I was looking, for something that gave forms a good treatment on their own and not just as a passing mention as often the case in other books.I particularly liked the section on security and preventing spoofing and cross-site request forgery -- which I had not seen mentioned anywhere before. And given that securing my site is a top priority, this tidbit of knowledge, for me anyway, more than justifies the cost of purchase. But there's lots more.The health related forms provide good examples of form elements in use. And I'm working thru the example code right now to see if I can get working on my own site -- which I then hope to use as a starting point for building the forms I need.Still an introductory test, for sure, but a decent one at that.

IT IS HELPING BOOK

Subscriber review

Dustin Marx Jan 26, 2014

Mastering HTML5 Forms consists of 5 chapters and about 125 pages of content. The first three chapters introduce and cover the key concepts and syntax of HTML5 forms. The fourth chapter focuses on using PHP and MySQL to store data provided via HTML5 forms in a database. The final chapter introduces responsive web design, covers some key strategies of responsive web design, and discusses using responsive web design to make forms-based applications perform better on devices of different resolutions and capabilities.Although most of Mastering HTML5 Forms is introductory in nature, most of the chapters conclude with lists of guidelines and best practices for further study in each chapter's area. Mastering HTML5 Forms includes several code examples and screen snapshots, though I would have liked to have seen more screen snapshots for all of the various HTML5 elements and input types.HTML5 forms are well covered online, but an advantage of a book devoted to the subject is the ease and convenience of finding this information on HTML5 forms, HTML5 forms validation, HTML5 forms styling, and improving HTML5 forms with responsive web designs can be found in a single location.

Not as comprehensive as I'd hoped.

Uwe Jan 12, 2025

It's very basic by showing HTML5 form inputs and ways to style them since it leaves it at mentioning mainly the language features to do so but goes little into depth what works best.
