    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    You could go down the path of using a fulfilment centre in USA - we ship to countries outside of USA via this method (I estimate it'll cost around $25 via USPS).. Let me know if you want their contact. Or you could find someone in Australia to distribute for you or use an Aussie fulfilment...

    US import tax - am I liable & can I claim it back (Australian company)

    You're right, I just confirmed with the Australian tax office - we will just need to wear the US tax as an expense. Thanks for your help.

    US import tax - am I liable & can I claim it back (Australian company)

    Thanks for the info @Walter Hay - the goods are actually made in Australia (not an import) so I would be claiming the GST back anyway via my Australian BAS return. Cheers Kerin

    US import tax - am I liable & can I claim it back (Australian company)

    Hi guys, I have an Australian company and want to ship $10K worth of goods from Australia to the Amazon USA facility. I have been sending things to US for a while now however the shipments have been under the tax/duty threshold so I've never had to deal with the issue of paying US import tax...

    Any other Aussies?

    INTRO 
    Hey @Wal903 welcome to the forum and hello from Sydney. Registering for an ABN is free and you won't need to pay any income tax until you start generating income so you may as well register for an ABN then purchase your domain to get the ball rolling. All my websites are DIY - wasn't hard to...

    FBA and Importing Goods From China

    HOT! SOURCING 
    Perfect, thanks for clarifying that. It seems the most logical thing for me to do would to sell as unregistered for VAT as the input VAT will always be lower than VAT payable to the govt - therefore I'll always end up in a payable position. I'll just have to absorb the input VAT and take it as...

    FBA and Importing Goods From China

    HOT! SOURCING 
    Hey there, I'm based in Australia but am going to start selling on Amazon UK. With regards to the VAT - do you know what the threshold is before VAT is payable upon importation? I'm assuming if you are registered for VAT you could reclaim this anyway however being a foreign company I believe...

    I don't know what to do: Buy and Sell for Profit vs Retail vs Startup

    I'd suggest you join the Insiders if you haven't already. There is nothing wrong with buying and selling physical goods. You are providing value by fulfilling somebody's needs. Sounds like you are overthinking things. Don't get stuck on finding the perfect product. You'll waste too much time...

    2013 Year in Review: How'd you do?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    2013 is the beginning of something huge for me. Spent the first few months on a journey of self discovery. Realised that the corporate world isn't for me. In October I started selling on Ebay again. Managed to make over $5k in sales so far from one product selling B2C. Focus next year will be...

    Importing (probably asked before)

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    I'm from Australia and it doesn't stop me from using Amazon.com. Check out FBA - the will do all the shipping and Fulfilment for you from the States. All you will need to do is ship them a bulk lot of your product and they'll take care of the rest. My main customer base is in the US - I will...

    Might Retire in Half The Time Thanks To Due Diligence

    Love it. Such a great idea - I'm in the midst of talking to a few suppliers now and will do exactly as you mentioned. The prices they are all quoting me are around the same range, which seems unusually high especially when I know how cheap it is to get stuff made in China. Cheers
