Colloidal precious metals — Bahamas import duty
Every one of the 5 tariff lines under Heading 2843 (colloidal precious metals) carries a flat 45% import duty in The Bahamas. It includes gold compounds, silver compounds — other and colloidal precious metals. 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.
