Importing from Switzerland to Chad: FAQ
How is import duty calculated for goods shipped from Switzerland to Chad?
Duty is the tariff rate for the product's HS code multiplied by the dutiable value. Chad assesses ad valorem duty on the CIF value: the price of the goods plus the cost of international freight and insurance to the point of entry. Import VAT (TVA) is then charged at 18% on CIF + duty + TCI + CCS + OHADA. Enter your HS code or a product description above to get the exact rate for your goods.
What is the import VAT rate in Chad?
The standard rate used by the calculator is 18% (TVA), charged on CIF + duty + TCI + CCS + OHADA.
Is there a de minimis threshold for imports into Chad?
There is no de minimis threshold on file for Chad. Duty and import taxes apply from the first unit of value.
Is shipping cost included in the dutiable value in Chad?
Yes. Chad uses CIF valuation, so international freight and insurance are added to the price of the goods before duty is calculated. Enter them in the shipping and insurance fields above.
Are there customs fees on top of duty in Chad?
Yes. The calculator adds Community Integration Tax (TCI) at 1% of CIF, Community Solidarity Levy (CCS) at 1% of CIF and OHADA Contribution at 0.05% of CIF.
What currency are duties paid in for Chad?
Duties and import taxes in Chad are assessed in XAF. The calculator above accepts an invoice in USD or XAF and reports the result in the invoice currency you choose.
Do goods from Switzerland get a preferential duty rate in Chad?
No trade agreement covering both Switzerland and Chad is on file in the LandedFees trade agreement database, so the calculator uses the standard (MFN) rate. Additional duties that depend on origin are applied where the tariff data has them.
