[AusNOG] GST Question for sending things to NZ from AU

[Skeeve Stevens]

Hey all,

We have a customer in NZ, and we sold them a router for a site in Auckland.   I think they paid for it via their Australian bank account - which means they paid Australian GST.

We shipping it to NZ via TNT.

What I am wondering is - when it lands in NZ, do they again have to pay NZ GST?

When I buy things from say - Singapore, I pay it ex-GST and then Fedex demands the GST before they release it to me here.

Is it the same with NZ?  Should we have sold it to them ex-GST in Australia because the router is leaving the country?

Soooo confusing.
