What r duties concerning international shipping?


I am in the US and my My friend is sending me somethings from India, clothing mostly. He mention something about paying a duty. What is a duty? it is like an extra tax for shipping out of country. Would I have to pay anything extra on my end when recieving the package? The stuff is valued retail at a $100 + he is sending me. Let me know. THanks in advance.!!

you shouldnt have to pay anything at this end,when my husband was over seas i never had to pay when he sent me or the kids anything.
ya i think duty is like going through customs.
hope this helps
