Other oil seeds and oleaginous fruits — Bahamas import duty
Every one of the 10 tariff lines under Heading 1207 (other oil seeds and oleaginous fruits) carries a flat 35% import duty in The Bahamas. It includes melon seeds, sesamum seeds and mustard seeds. 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.
