Frequently Asked Questions

How is import BTW calculated in Suriname?

Over the customs value plus import duty, excise and the other levies due on import, such as the statistics and consent fees (Wet BTW art. 19).

Which exchange rate does customs use?

The douanekoers, set every two weeks by the Central Bank from the market selling rate. It is not published in one fixed place, so the tool starts with today's CBvS rate and lets you type the customs rate from your declaration.
