Statuettes and other ornamental ceramic articles — Bahamas import duty
Most statuettes and other ornamental ceramic articles are duty-free: 1 of 2 tariff lines under Heading 6913 carry no import duty, and the rest run up to 45%. 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. 1 of these lines also carry excise duty (5%), charged on entry under the Excise Act on top of anything above.
