depends on what the item is you need to check out this:
What's My Duty? | Duty Estimator
on the right in the blue box click on Importer and go through it. if the items work out to under $60 payment to customs then there should be no cost. over $60 then there is a cost.

Re: Tax on presents
aahh ok so thats someone sending you a gift. the calculator is for you ordering from overseas.
So if less that $110 no customs duty but if over then duty on the amount over and not on the full cost as in buying from overseas and delivery here, will be payable. The cost of that will depend on the amount over and not sure if there is a calculator for that. maybe have a look round the site I gave you the link for as it is the customs site.
