    Probably a long shot but if things were to fall into place I would be tasked with shipping vessel
    from still unknown port in France to Port Everglades. Anyone have any experience with this ? Appears we have no VAT tax here but is there some other tax or duty ? Vessel was originally built in Miami and the VAT tax in France has been paid.

    If the boat was US built there should not be any customs duties but you need to check with a custom broker

    I highly recommend Howard S. (Steele) Reeder for a customs broker.

    I've done dock express from the Genoa, It and Palma, Mallorca, Sp. regions. Not familiar with any pickups in France.
