Bahamas duty calculator (2026)

Enter a price and category to get the full landed cost: import duty, the 1% customs processing fee, any environmental levy, and 10% VAT, worked out the same way Bahamas Customs does it.

Worked example: a $600 TV with $120 freight

A $600 television shipped with $120 of freight is classified under tariff line 8528.7200, televisions (LCD, LED, OLED, QLED), which carries 35% import duty and a $5.00 environmental levy. Customs assesses duty on the CIF value (the price plus freight), then charges 10% VAT on the landed total.

Item price$600.00
Freight$120.00
Import duty35% of price + freight ($720.00)$252.00
Processing fee1% would be $7.20, so the $10 minimum applies$10.00
Environmental levy$5.00
VAT10% of the $987.00 landed cost$98.70
Total import chargeson top of the price and the freight$365.70
Total landed cost$1,085.70

Without the freight the same TV pays $307.50 in charges. Freight is dutiable because Customs assesses on the CIF value. Enter your forwarder's charge above and it's included in duty, the processing fee and VAT. See how the four charges stack.
