Forwarding costs and costs of bank transfers In addition to the calculated value of the goods, forwarding costs arise. (Except within Germany, valid for deliveries to bookshops: book delivery service: in this case the publisher pays the forwarding costs). Because the weight varies from order to order, unfortunately no estimated amounts for forwarding costs can be calculated in advance. In the case of business transactions to foreign countries and transfers of amounts of foreign currencies (not EUR) the bank transfer costs for the export country as well as for the Federal Republic of Germany are also to be carried by the customer. These costs mentioned are fixed on the basis of experience and are documented as evidence if requested. 10.
