Questions

Asked often.

How is import duty calculated in Ghana?

Duty is charged on the customs value (CIF in cedis: FOB + freight + insurance) at the ECOWAS CET band for your HS code, which is 0, 5, 10, 20 or 35%. VAT (15%), NHIL (2.5%) and GETFund (2.5%) are then charged on customs value plus duty. ECOWAS (0.5%), AU (0.2%), EXIM (0.75%), Special Import Levy (2%) and 1% withholding are charged on customs value, and the 0.4% ICUMS network charge is charged on FOB.

Do you clear vehicles, including EVs?

Yes. We clear new and used cars, trucks and EVs at Tema, covering vehicle examination, certification, overage assessment and DVLA documentation.

Do you handle transit cargo to the Sahel?

Yes. Transit declarations, bonds and cross-border road permits to Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger are part of our checklist.

Is your warehousing bonded?

Yes. Bonded storage lets you defer duty until goods are released into the market or re-exported. Licence numbers are available on request.

Can you handle reefer and dangerous goods?

Yes. We handle reefer with continuous temperature logging, and dangerous goods with the appropriate IMDG/IATA documentation.
