Hi Guys,

How do I know if I will be charged a customs fee? I recently bought a TV receiver from Germany and it is coming via DHL.

It is only a single unit and is brand new. Will there be any customs fee?

Thanks
LR

Hi,
It is allowed to bring personal items valued upto SR. 3,000. I have this sent by tweet from KSA customs account (@KsaCustoms) on July 07. I think some broker here can confirm this.

I have a couple of microcontrollers and microprocessors which I want to take with me. I am going to hold workshops at different places of the world and will give in different parts of the world through an organization. This is going to start in a while and I was wondering if this will be an issue. Since the Integrated Circuit is basically an electronic component, I am not sure if it is a good idea to travel with them.
Any thoughts or solutions?
