Topic: Cook Islands
DUTY TAX
Hi there,

My daughter is getting married in Rarotonga August 2012. I was hoping to send a box or two of her favourite wine to the resort where they are staying as a nice surprise and a wedding gift.

How would I work out what the duty tax would be? And also how would I do this legally?

Thanks
