"Promotional educational material" stickers on the pack for duty issues
Hi all, When you are sending the packages specifically to developing countries like India, please make sure to mark them as something like this :- "this pack contains only promotional material that has no commercial value and no duty or tax should be charged on this" . This would make sure that there would be no duty/tax payable by the teams.

we also had this happen in adelaide for a run of ubuntu cds. we had to pay duty on what the customs people decided they were worth. perhaps something about them being for a community event might help. janet On Thu, Jul 24, 2008 at 2:41 AM, shirish <shirishag75@gmail.com> wrote:
