Be familiar with Customs
It’s always the buyer’s responsibility to clear customs and pay the relevant custom duties.
AliExpress sellers don't add taxes, VAT, or other hidden charges. You pay us what you see on the order screen, i.e. goods subtotal + shipping cost. In the most countries, however, you have to pay taxes or duties on imported goods. Sometimes goods under a certain value, or in certain categories, do not incur taxes.
