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.

Very methodology learning

Kozhanov Eugeny Aug 31, 2014

This is great book! It's easy to read and learning Cypher. It's have examples of queries and examples code using Cypher's queries in Java. This book very useful for SQL users, because it's easy to learn if you use SQL in your work. There are examples and comments for each query in this book. I use neo4j and Java, and this book help me make my queries more shorter and useful for other developers in our team.

Deven Kalra Sep 23, 2014

Seamlessly upgrade from SQL to Cypher.. Author has in depth knowledge of the subjects and he explains about graph theory also.. So need to purchase additional book for that.. Basically all the code is in java so if you are trying to connect to Graph database like Neo4J you are in luck with this! I know I was. Hitting wall after wall.. till I found this gem. Very cheap and good.

The authors have done an outstanding job of extracting the essence of Cypher and describing a core set of features of the tool features as well as how to take advantage from them.He describes very clearly his capability, constructs and above all how to manage with the relationships among nodes, their creation, modification and deleting.This text has served as a helpful guide among other more recently online docs and tutorials.Yes, I would recommend it.

I've been playing with Neo4j off and on for more than a year, and I knew that Cypher was maturing as a query language.I agree with the other reviewer who said there's a bunch of java stuff at the beginning, which may be useful. I don't know because I'm still learning java.But I was surprised to find that since Cypher is so intuitive, that if you just jump into Chapter 1, around page 20, if you're familiar with graphs and databases, it should be pretty obvious what is going on from the syntax alone.Having said that, I found the comparisons with SQL really helpful. I was surprised to note how many of the things in this book were already familiar to me, and how many new features have been added to Cypher.I hope it will continue growing as a language, since there are still a lot of graph applications that require outside wrappers (I use py2neo), and not all of those wrappers are fully developed, yet. So java is the fallback for anything sophisticated you might want to do.This book is really for those who are newer to Neo4j and want to get up and running quickly with a good overview of what it can do out of the box, which is quite a lot.
