Will I have to pay customs charges?

First of all I'm not sure if it's in right section this but if it is then hooray me :)

Ok I want to know if I'm going to have to pay ANY fee for an item I might get sent by a friend soon from America.

The item is a small plush tiger toy, doesn't weigh hardly anything, and she received it as a gift herself and she wants to send it to me as a gift.

I can't find anything remotely clear about this and don't entirely understand customs things and this would be my first ever overseas item I've received.

Am I going to have to pay a fee for it from customs if she sends it? A gift is something someone willingly gives you for free out of goodwill, and if I had to pay some kind of charges it's hardly a gift is it?

I need to know ASAP because it's an important thing to me.
