Step 3: Calculate Import Duty Use the formula: Import Duty = (CIF Value Duty Rate) / 100 Examples (Assumed Duty Rate: 10%): For CIF $50,000: (50,000 10%) = $5,000 For CIF $65,000: (65,000 10%) = $6,500 For CIF $20,000: (20,000 10%) = $2,000 Step 4: Calculate VAT (If Applicable) VAT is calculated as: VAT = [(CIF Value + Import Duty) VAT Rate] / 100 Example (Assumed VAT Rate: 15%): For CIF $50,000: VAT = [(50,000 + 5,000) 15%] = $8,250 For CIF $65,000: VAT = [(65,000 + 6,500) 15%] = $10,725 For CIF $20,000: VAT = [(20,000 + 2,000) 15%] = $3,300 Note: VAT rates vary by country
