Ditto. None on four new Emerald purchases so far. There was a thread here about 18-24 months ago (?) where a US member was hit with import duty right at the end of a calendar year, perhaps anticipating a change in the law, but he filed an appeal. I'm not sure if he got his money back (don't recall a follow-up post closing the loop) but it is a mistake between Ireland and the US. YMMV with other countries that have different treaties and tax laws.
