A quick import duty calculator for China → Saudi Arabia. Enter your goods value, freight and rate to estimate duty, VAT and total landed cost. Saudi Arabia applies the GCC Common External Tariff — a 5% base customs duty on CIF — but a 2020 tariff reform raised many finished consumer goods, and finished furniture now attracts roughly 10–15% rather than 5%. Duty is charged on the CIF value (Cost + Insurance + Freight), not the factory invoice.
This is an estimate. Your real rate depends on the exact HS classification of your goods — send us the product and we confirm the current rate and a full landed cost, free.
How the calculation works
Duty is charged on the customs value (goods + freight + insurance), not the factory price. With finished-furniture duty at 10–15% and 15% VAT stacked on CIF-plus-duty, the effective import tax on a furniture consignment runs to roughly 30% of CIF — the heaviest in the Gulf, which is exactly why the classification and the SABER certificate have to be right. If you are VAT-registered in Saudi Arabia, import VAT is recoverable as input tax through your ZATCA return.
Reviewed by verified import specialists
The calculator logic and rate guidance on this page reflects ZATCA (Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority) and SASO practice and the applicable tariff schedule as of August 2026. Rates and procedures can change — we re-verify this page each quarter and confirm the rate for your specific HS code before you commit to an order. This is practical guidance, not a customs ruling on your particular goods.
