The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

The Royal Academy of Arts poster for David Hockney RA: 82 Portraits and 1 Still-life, shown in the Sackler Wing from 2 July to 2 October 2016. A large offset sheet of 76.2 x 50.8 cm, offered new and unused.
The Piece
In 2013 Hockney returned to Los Angeles and began a sequence of portraits of friends, family and fellow artists, each sitter painted in acrylic on the same yellow chair against flat fields of blue and green. The Royal Academy showed eighty two of them together with a single still life.
The poster sets nine of those portraits in a grid of three by three on a deep navy ground, the sitters seated in suits, summer shirts and a red evening skirt. A tall magenta RA stands behind them at upper left. Along the foot run the artist's name in heavy white capitals and the dates.
