FedEx mails you the bill for the import fee later, I didn't get mine until about two weeks after they dropped off my statue... They only bill you if you live in a state that requires a import fee... Unfortunately for me California does..
I find this so bizarre... it's a fedex thing only I believe. I've had VERY expensive items shipped from japan and china via other means and never was charged a cent in fees.
