When this worksheet is useful
Use it for parcels or personal-use goods when you need to estimate the taxable import bill. If you are a bona fide passenger and think a concession applies, verify that path first instead of assuming full duty.
What to verify before relying on the result
Check whether the item is restricted, whether a traveller concession applies, and whether the shipment follows the normal tariff-line process or a special customs path.
FAQ
Does this calculator automatically apply the Vanuatu passenger concession?
No. It models a taxable import by default. If a bona fide passenger concession applies, verify that with the official customs source before using the worksheet result.
Why does the page still ask for a duty rate?
Because personal-use items can still fall under different tariff lines. The worksheet keeps the duty field editable instead of pretending every item uses the same rate.
Can I use this for gifts or online shopping parcels?
Yes as a planning worksheet, but customs treatment can still depend on the item type, declared value, import purpose, and any restricted-goods rules.
