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.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

I took a chance on this book and I'm not that happy that I did. This book provides very little in the way of 'new' examples and definitely stays away from any in-depth discussions of CodeIgniter. There's nothing in this book that you can't find on the CI website.

First impressions are the information is good but the formatting is really really poor - code sections have not been formatted for print so lines run on to multiple lines making it hard to readNo spacing between sections of code also make it hard to read with it all forming huge blocks of textFinally you are presented with complete code samples explained with comments within the code rather then separate sections - these comments are not immediately obvious & again run over causing confusion as to if the text is part of the comment or codeIt’s annoying because the topics complex enough as it is without struggling with poor layoutUpdate : finished the book, poor formatting continues throughout & makes it harder to understand the examples, writing in places is poor which again makes it harder to understand.That being said it’s got useful information in there & worth reading if only because the number of books on CI development are slim

This book might become worthy of three or ever four stars, once it’s finished, but this sloppily proof-read draft should not have been published. I’m at page 45, and I’m giving up now.Both the general text and the code examples are so littered with typos and misused words that they are often difficult to make sense of.The text reads “a single comma” when they mean “single quotes.” It says “The Boolean and contacts” when they mean “Booleans and constants.” The introduction to an example says that it “... creates a form for adding and editing a product” when in fact the example that follows is for a contact form that has nothing to do with any products. And the code often looks like this: function index () {// executed when referring to My_handlercontroller viaURLecho “Hello World”; }You have to look at that for a minute to figure out what is code and what is comment, since the lines have been muddled together.I’m thinking about requesting a refund, even though I’ve made some highlighting. This book was simply not ready to be sent to the printer.

The php code is not formatted correctly and is very difficult to follow. New lines are not new lines and the comments merge with the actual code in one big messy block. Never buying another tech book from Kindle again. Would get a refund if its possible but its been too ling since I bought.
