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:

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.

This book is a must-read for admins looking for a one-stop book for learning all about Azure Virtual Desktop.

Joe Stewart May 22, 2022

I support Azure Virtual Desktop for a Fortune 500 company, and my primary focus is the networking aspect of the deployment. While Azure documentation was good, the book provides a slightly different perspective and connects the dots in the areas where documentation is either too chatty or insufficiently detailed.This book caught my attention due to my interest in network architecture and the AVD specifics/corner cases. ( Like private endpoints or using NVA for force tunneling ). Network components are essential to all elements of deployment - on-premise connectivity, load balancing, AVD control plane, reverse connect specifics, scalable design (hub-and-spoke), redundancy, FSLogix/storage connectivity, private endpoints, and DNS resolution, to name a few.I was able to find answers to most of my questions here. Most of the examples provide PowerShell snippets and screenshots for deploying the environment via the portal.I recommend using this book for deployments on day one and for brownfield support.

Luke Jul 06, 2022

Should be used as a study aide if attempting the certification exam, but works well for practical knowledge. Ryan provides great details on many features of AVD, and links to extraneous materials. A valuable resource.

Sandeep Patnaik Jun 11, 2022

I was part of the product team at Microsoft that built Azure Virtual Desktop. I am impressed with the level of product details and care for the reader that Ryan has put into the book. In addition to these, the things that stood out for me are the chapters on automation, monitoring and troubleshooting - super important. The Q&A and Further reading sections at the end of each chapter are a nice add on.
