From Adoramas help pages:
Quote:
The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country and brokerage fees / custom clearance charges which may be imposed by the carrier . These charges must be borne by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.
So Adorama (and from my experience B&H too) doesn't take care of any extra fees, that's for the customs in the country you are in to take care of. For example, when I bought my PRS-900 from B&H they sent it with UPS. When it arrived in Sweden UPS called me and we settled the VAT and import fees over the phone.
