Chapter 61 · Section XI: Textiles & clothing
Clothing (Knitted or Crocheted) — Bahamas import duty
Chapter 61 covers clothing (knitted or crocheted). The most common rate is 20% import duty (105 of 118 tariff lines), with rates ranging from 0% to 20%. 13 lines are duty-free. It includes t-shirts & tops, sweaters, hoodies & cardigans and baby clothing. Duty is not the whole bill: The Bahamas adds a 1% customs processing fee (minimum $10, maximum $750) and 10% VAT on the landed cost.
