During the review period, a number of changes were made to taxes collected at the border. In particular, the amendment to the Customs and Excise Duties (Amendment) Act in April 2016 removed revenue replacement duties on CARICOM goods, and increased the scope of goods subject to excise duties. Following these changes, the border taxes are import tariffs, revenue replacement duties, and an environmental tax. These taxes are not applied on domestically produced goods or services; they are applied on imports from non-CARICOM countries only. Some taxes are collected on both domestically produced goods and services, and on imported ones; they include the general sales tax (GST) and excise duties (Section 3.3.1).
