    >and why is that? probably import tariffs on tech products, with exceptions if it's below a certain amount.

      A lot of countries have "de minimus" thresholds below which an individual can import duty-free. In the US for reference, it's $800, but other countries have other limits. If you're over that limit, either the product needs to be delivered duty paid (DDP) by the importer or if it is un-paid, the end recipient has to jump through some hoops to pay, with varying complexity in different countries. Trade logistics is an interesting challenge, and one we want to solve so our customers don't have to... That is part of why we're introducing new regions in phases.

        Thanks for doing this! It would be very nice to know the list of countries where you will ship this year. I was very excited and ordered it to an US address. But that means: I pay US tax + shipping/forwarding costs + local import tax of 30% on anything above USD150. Also, I will have to order an ISO keyboard separately, when it becomes available (and it is not clear when that happens). I figured out that metal cover should be compatible between US and ISO keyboards, right?

    In Uruguay, anything above 200 usd pays roughtly 100% in taxes, you have to import it. And you have only 3 tax free shippings per year.
