Why is it that customers from Malaysia can’t buy the DVD?

Thiago, I’m not a law student, but after Luiz Fernando (elchevive86) warned me about this tax thing, I went to RF’s website…
http://www.receita.fazenda.gov.br/aduana/rts.htm

Softwares pagam 60% (sessenta por cento) sobre o meio físico, somente se o valor do meio físico vier discriminado separadamente na Nota Fiscal

Atenção:

Caso o valor do meio físico não seja discriminado na Nota Fiscal o pagamento do imposto recairá sobre o valor total da remessa.

Isenções

1. Remessas no valor total de até US$ 50.00 (cinqüenta dólares americanos) estão isentas dos impostos , desde que sejam transportadas pelo serviço postal, e que o remetente e o destinatário sejam pessoas físicas;

Basically, we pay for it anyway… 60% or 100%… And Novell is an enterprise… So,by the first item on “Isenções” section, even if the box costs less than US$ 50,00 we must pay for it. The way I understood,only if Karl or any other employee at Novell sent us the boxes using his name but on behalf of Novell we wouldn’t have to pay. Aren’t CPMF and IR enough for these guys?? Sh*t…

The box contains two double-layer DVDs (all content available on FTP), a printed handbook and installation support.
