PI Taxes, are they really 0%?

Hi,

On various sites it seems there are more than just the simple customs office tax. If a customs office tax is set to 0%, will the export and import on that planet truly cost 0 ISK?

Thanks

If you're in Highsec, the tax cannot be zero (just the tax set by players)

If you're elsewhere, yes, it can truly be zero.

Woo! CSM XI!

However, IIRC, it also shows 0% when you're not allowed to use a given POCO. So, if they belong to some random organization, you may want to check that you can actually access them.

On the other hand, if you plan on being an ass with some side character, you can seek those out actively and annoy those people by slowly making tier 2 PI and launching it with your rocket from your planetary command center.

It'll cost 17%, but this will be 17% the POCO-owners never get. P

On the other, other hand, you could just find POCOs you can access and make a fortune instead of pissing money away trying to "annoy" someone by doing something they will likely never even notice.

If you want to actually annoy them, find their extractors, lay some on top, and run 15 minutes cycles until you've trashed the resource bank.

Still a pyrrhic victory, but at least they'll have something to be annoyed by.
