Trades Tax
|
Trades Tax is a tax generally levied on imported
goods into the Seychelles. The amount of tax is
determined by the amount stated in the Schedules
of the prevailing law, Trades Tax Regulations, 1997.
Trades tax is calculated on the CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight)
value of the goods. The Scheduled tax rate is then applied.
For example: The taxable CIF value of a widget is made up of SR 800 (cost
of the widget) + SR 100 (freight) + SR 100 (insurance) and
therefore the CIF value is SR 1,000 (800+100+100). The Trades
Tax rate for widgets is set at 10% and therefore the Trades Tax
payable is SR 100 (1,000x10%).

Note: Trades tax is paid to the Seychelles Revenue Commission – not
Customs. All cheques must be made out to “The Seychelles Revenue
Commission” as the payee.
