Mozambique Vehicle Duty Calculator — Instantly Estimate AT Import Duty

July 20263 min readMichelle Reyners

Mozambique's duty is simpler than most — just import duty (25% or 40%) and VAT — but the Intertek PSI requirement adds a critical cost that many calculators miss.

Why Use a Calculator?

  • Duty rate jumps from 25% to 40% at exactly 1500cc
  • Minibuses are duty-free (0%) — our calculator handles this correctly
  • VAT rate needs confirmation (16% or 17% depending on current AT policy)
  • Intertek PSI fees vary by vehicle size and must be included in total cost

Sample Calculation

A Suzuki Swift 1200cc (CIF = USD 7,000): duty 25% = USD 1,750, VAT = USD 1,488, Intertek = USD 300. Total: USD 3,538. A Toyota Prado 3000cc (CIF = USD 20,000): duty 40% = USD 8,000, VAT = USD 4,760, Intertek = USD 400. Total: USD 13,160. See the impact of engine size.

Use our vehicle duty calculator now for an instant Mozambique import duty estimate.
