Goods Information
Import customs tariff calculation is based on the HS (Harmonized System) code of the goods. Each product has its own HS code and the corresponding customs duty rate is applied. Total import costs consist of three components: customs duty (a certain percentage of CIF value), VAT (18%) and excise tax for some goods. CIF value is the sum of the goods price, international shipping and insurance costs. This calculator helps entrepreneurs and supply chains plan import costs in advance.

What is an HS code and how is it found?
An HS (Harmonized System) code is a numeric code used for classifying goods in international trade. You can find the HS code in the calculator by entering the product name.
What is CIF value?
CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight) value is the sum of the goods price, international shipping costs and insurance costs. Customs duty is calculated based on this total amount.
Are there goods with zero customs duty?
Yes. A 0% customs duty applies for some goods — especially raw materials, medical equipment and some agricultural products. The exact rate depends on the HS code.
Is it possible to be exempt from import duties?
In some cases yes. Customs benefits may apply in special economic zones, under free trade agreements or based on certain licenses.
How long does the import procedure take?
With a complete set of documents, the standard import procedure usually takes 1-3 working days. In cases requiring additional inspection, this period can be extended.
