-Excise duty ………………0%

-VAT………………………18%



Example


Imported non-utility vehicle with CIF value of USD 2500 on arrival in Tanzania (Assume the exchange rate is TZS 1300 per USD). The Calculation will be as follows:

Duty/Tax TypeComputationDuty/Tax payable
a) Import dutyIn order to obtain import duty to be paid, take the certified customs value and multiply by the import duty rate (25%) USD 2500 x 25% =625 USD

USD 625 x TZS 1300 = TZS 812,500
TZS 812,500
b) Excise dutyIn order to obtain excise duty value, take the certified customs value plus import duty calculated in (a). Then multiply by the excise duty rate (0%).

USD 2500 + USD 625 =USD 3125

USD 3125 X 0% = USD 0

USD 0 X TZS 1300 = TZS 0



TZS 0
c) Value Added Tax (VAT)
In order to get the value of VAT, take the certified customs value and add to it the import duty and the excise duty calculated in (b). Then multiply by the VAT rate (18%)

USD 2500 + USD 625 +USD 0 =USD 3125

USD 3125 X 18% = USD 562.5
