        Pay sales tax on purchase and then again on import to border control because they believe vat wasnt paid yet because it wasnt declared right

          It wasn’t declared as vat because usa doesn’t have vat, only sales tax. Sales tax is similar to vat, but not the same, so declaring sales tax as vat would be fraud.
