Heading 8704 · Chapter 87
Trucks & Vans — Bahamas import duty
Heading 8704 (trucks & vans) carries no customs import duty — all 61 tariff lines are free — but these goods pay excise duty instead (10%–65%), charged on entry under the Excise Act rather than the tariff schedule. 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.
