Polymers of vinyl chloride or of other halogenated olefins: Bahamas import duty

Every one of the 9 tariff lines under Heading 3904 (polymers of vinyl chloride or of other halogenated olefins) carries a flat 45% import duty in The Bahamas. It includes fluoro-polymers — other, vinylidene chloride polymers and vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymers. 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.
