Motor vehicle importers/dealers and the public are hereby advised about the approved formula applicable to calculation of Customs Duty and Taxes on motor vehicles four years and older and under four years old.

Note

• In determining the age of a vehicle, Section 209 of the Customs Regulation defines “four years old” as the period of forty-eight months or four calendar years immediately preceding January 1 in the calendar year of importation.
• Vehicles four years and older are subject to a Flat Rate of Tax
• The declaration of particulars for a motor vehicle for the purpose of importation is facilitated via the Automated System for Customs Data (ASYCUDA) World. Among them, the Bill of Lading, Invoice, applicant’s Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), CG/Tax Exemptions letter (if necessary) cancellation of registration (if necessary),
• Importers are advised to utilise the services of a licenced Customhouse broker who is registered in ASYCUDA World to facilitate the process.
• Public Officials who require assistance with ASYCUDA World for Tax Exemptions purposes, can make request to the Tax Exemptions Helpdesk – 227-6060 ext 3501.
• Visit the Motor Vehicle Calculator for assistance on calculating the duty and taxes on motor vehicles.

• Excise 110% ($ 6,000 +   $2,700) =  $9,570
• VAT 14% ($ 6,000 +  $2,700 + $9,570) =  $2,557.80
