Export duty on tuba from Russian Federation

Post by royjohn »

Hello All,
I have been looking at a used tuba offered for sale from the Russian Federation. I've been able to find a listing for the import duty charged by the US (2.9%) and this is not a deal-breaker. However, I'm wondering whether I would also be liable for export duties from Russia and, if so, what those would be. I've done a google search and been unable to find the information needed.

Does anyone know whether I'd pay (or does the seller/shipper when shipping) an export duty and, if so, what it would be?
Thx,
royjohn
