Import tax

The term’’ Import tax” is widely used by people who export or import goods. Import tax is not a term, you can hardly find it in laws and documents. When we say import tax in everyday speech, we mean different types of taxes and fees. We have singled out some of them.
Value Added Tax (VAT) - this type of tax is a state tax and paid to the state budget. VAT is not only fee for import the goods, but also for supplying the goods and customer supports. The rate of this tax is 20%. Not only imported goods but also all goods and services are taxed with this type of tax.


Excise tax - Excise tax is taxed, for example, alcohol, cigarettes, gasoline, compressed natural gas. Both organizations and individual entrepreneurs pay excise tax for imported goods.


Environmental tax - this type of tax is directed to the state budget for carrying out of environmental measures. Environmental tax can be paid by both organizations and individuals. If you are importing a product that is harmful to the environment, you will have to pay an environmental tax.

Anti-dumping duty- when the import of this or that product causes material damage to this or that branch of the state economy or there is such a danger, anti-dumping duty is charged. This type of tax is an anti-inflationary way

Customs duty - this is a mandatory fee charged by the customs authorities. When the goods are at the customs border, a customs duty must be paid for that. The type of goods, customs value, physical characteristics are taken into account, when charging customs duties.
