What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

It covers various topics relevant to the exam and provides in-depth explanations to help learners reinforce key concepts and retain new knowledge.I am fully certified in Microsoft Azure, AWS, and GCP, so I am familiar with cloud concepts and how to apply technology on the Microsoft Azure platform effectively.I reviewed this book to help other learners pick great resources for their cloud careers, and this exam guide is a good read. The chapters are well organized and divided into sections with exercises for learners to speed up their learning journey. It goes beyond the minimum requirement for clearing the exam, which is beneficial as it prepares learners not just to pass an exam as a developer but also to become well-rounded Azure DevOps or Architect Experts as their career goal.I have yet to try all the online resources in the book, but as a learner, I know that hands-on practice is vital for success in clearing this exam and building a solid path to a cloud career. Please spend time on the labs and practice exam questions. For all practice exams, not just pick the correct answer, but also explain to yourself why that is the right one and then explain to others why the wrong answers were wrong. The drag-and-drop questions in the real exam will be tricky if you have not done enough actual tasks before.Overall, "The AZ-204 Exam Guide" is an indispensable companion for anyone preparing for the Microsoft Azure AZ-204 exam.
