Fiji - Customs RegulationsFiji - Customs Regulations
All imports into Fiji are subject to classification by the Fiji Revenue and Customs Service, and rates of duty vary with the type of goods. Imports are subject to import duty (customs tariff, excise duties and VAT), which is levied in accordance with rates outlined in the schedule of customs tariffs. VAT is fixed at nine percent. Duty at a higher rate is generally levied on automobiles, ready-made garments, tobacco, liquor, beer, and wines. At the 2018-2019 annual national budget, the government raised excise duties of imported cigarettes, tobacco, and alcohol by 15%, and applied a higher specific duty of 32% or FJD 2 (USD 0.95) per liter on imported fizzy drinks. The government removed import duties on fruit and vegetables to increase the affordability of healthy food options.
