Peat, whether or not agglomerated: Bahamas import duty
Heading 2703 (peat, whether or not agglomerated) carries no customs import duty (all 1 tariff line are free), but these goods pay excise duty instead (20%), charged on entry under the Excise Act rather than the tariff schedule. Duty is not the whole bill: The Bahamas adds a 1% customs processing fee (minimum $10, maximum $1,500) and 10% VAT on the landed cost.
