Just assume 'YES'.

Customs Duties will be applicable for all airguns coming out of the E.U., and are not the vendor's choice. And to prevent a fine or loss of future revenue from the U.S. market, all will accurately value the items on the U.S. Customs import/declaration forms.

Then why have so many of us never pay any customs duty.

Here you go... I bought a Uragan from Krale and I got hit with $65 import tax. I believe that for air guns and accessories, the rate is between 1 - 3% after the first $800. I couldn't find the exact tariff for air guns. If the shipment goes through a carrier, then they are the "agent" responsible for collecting the tariff.

  1. International Postal Service: Merchandise shipped through the international postal service is forwarded upon its arrival in the United States to one of U.S. Customs and Border Protection International Mail Branches for clearance. If the item is less than $2,000 in value and is not subject to a quota or is not a restricted or prohibited item, a CBP official will usually prepare the paperwork for importing it, assess the proper duty, and release it for delivery. This procedure is generally referred to as a mail entry. Packages whose declared value is under $800 ($100 if being sent as a gift to someone other than the purchaser) will generally be cleared without any additional paperwork prepared by CBP. However, CBP always reserves the right to require a formal entry for any importation and generally exercises this option if there is something unusual about the importation, or if important documents such as an invoice or bill of sale do not accompany the item.
