Important: Customs duty rates and currency exchange estimates shown here reflect typical 2026 SARS schedules and rough market values. SARS publishes exact rates by HS code — if your purchase is large, verify with your courier or via the SARS tariff schedule. The 2024 SARS reform removed the previous R500 de minimis threshold, so all imports now attract VAT regardless of value. Tax regimes for Eswatini, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe coming soon.
