Electrical capacitors, fixed — Bahamas import duty
Every one of the 9 tariff lines under Heading 8532 (electrical capacitors, fixed) carries a flat 5% import duty in The Bahamas. It includes parts and variable or adjustable capacitors. 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.
