BVI Customs Tariff & Importation Guidelines

Her Majesty's Customs in the British Virgin Islands assesses import duties based on the full CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) valuation of cargo imported through Port Purcell (Tortola), Virgin Gorda, or air cargo hubs.

The general tariff rate is 20.0% on most consumer items. Motor vehicles are tiered: 10% for electric vehicles, 15% for hybrids, 20% for standard passenger cars up to 2,000 cc, 25% for 2,000–3,000 cc, and 35% for vehicles over 3,000 cc.
