Vehicle Import Duty Calculator
Rough estimate of import duty based on CIF value and engine capacity.
⚠ Most rates below are confirmed, but two things aren't yet: PAL (7.5%), SSCL (2.5%), VAT (18%) and the excise tiers by engine size are cross-checked and reliable. The Customs Duty rate is still unconfirmed — sources disagree between roughly 45% and 100%, tied to a possibly-expired 2026 surcharge — and a separate Luxury Tax on higher-value vehicles isn't included in this calculator yet. Use the "Adjust rates" section below if you have a current Customs Duty figure from a clearing agent or the official Gazette.

How this estimate is built
Customs Duty is applied to the CIF value first. Excise Duty is then added on top, tiered by engine size for petrol/diesel vehicles (electric vehicles use a separate, typically much lower rate). PAL and SSCL apply as standard levies, and VAT is applied last on the cumulative total. Real customs assessments may include additional components not shown here.
