Synthetic rubber and factice derived from oils: Bahamas import duty

Every one of the 14 tariff lines under Heading 4002 (synthetic rubber and factice derived from oils) carries a flat 45% import duty in The Bahamas. It includes isoprene rubber, butadiene rubber and acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber — latex. 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.
