I think I wasn't charged duty when I went to pick up Rays ITC (made in Japan) at Point Roberts. And pretty sure no duty when I picked up the Rota SVN (made in philipine)  |
Yeah...sometimes they don't ask where it is made. And they just don't charge you the duty. Rare tho. Depends on the customs officer. But if they ask where it is made...you have to tell them the truth.
I once told them a computer keyboard I bought was made in the US (it was an old-style IBM clone). They didn't believe me because they think all electronic/computer stuff is made in China (which it generally is) and made me pop the trunk so they could inspect it for themselves.
