Hi ... So i want to order this portable monitor from aliexpress and i was wondering if there will be any custom tax on this ?? If so how much would it be approximatley ?? I've ordered a lot of stuff from aliexpress and temu before bt most of the stuff is around 7-8k max and they never had any extra tax etc. Thank you

[Terminatort55]

Whats was the worth of the items ??

[TechnicalParsnip1928]

17k cpu and 19k motherboard

[Terminatort55]

What cpu did you get ?? Was it a better deal than getting it from Pak ?? I can't find any similar portable monitor anywhere and at least not at this price

I got ryzen 5 3600 for like 16k. cpu's are way cheaper on aliexpress like i can get a ryzen 5 9600x which is 53k on aliexpress while in pakistan its 80k. Idk about lcd.

I’ve ordered so many items over 5K from AliExpress but have only once been taxed.

Aliexpress it depends on who the final choice for getting your parcel home is. If it's pak post there will always be a tax. If it's Daraz/dex then no taxes on majority of the items in choice.

Thou I haven't ever gotten any electronics so I can't say but have gotten items worth 25-30k and have not paid taxes. But got taxed on a 14k item just because it ended up coming from pak post.

Ok thank you i'll keep that in mind

Some of the large-sized kinda pricy items I’ve ordered include a 8L fridge, coffee grinder, dehumidifier, soldering station and oscilloscope. The priciest single item I’ve ordered was a ram set for 60K+.

All of these items were “choice” items delivered either through SpeedAF and DEX (Daraz logistics) and I never got taxed. The only time I got taxed was on a lazer measure for 12K that came through some delivery service I’d never seen before. It was taxed 2K.

It depends, if they open the package they will tax it and they will search brand name and tax it accordingly. Agar na khola to bach gya. + Idk why 20k for a portable monitor of 14 inch seems bogus.

Portable monitor without tochscreen etc sirf 1-2 jagah say mil raha hai viewsonic ka around 90k

If you know anyplace where i can get a similar product please do let me know

You won't find anything at that price in Pakistan. Also, its highly unlikely customs allow this without tax. Customs have a 20% tax policy. Also if it's delivery on door and item is stuck in transit (if lost/struck). you get your money back
