Hi .. Is the item under $20 exempt ?.. US sellers using ebay's new Global Shipping Program , Customs charges are paid on checkout rather than on delivery..

http://pages.ebay.com/help/buy/shipping-globally.html

For sellers using this program on first part of listing will see...import charges..to be provided at checkout

Under $20..should be none.
