Gateway to Global Growth: Updated ATA Carnet VAT & Duty Rates Available Now

Call Boomerang Carnets, Your Carnet Specialists

Showcasing your goods at an international trade show?  Planning a world tour with your band? Launching a product abroad?  Expanding into new markets?  

The ATA Carnet makes it possible.  Often called the “passport for goods,” an ATA Carnet allows you to temporarily import goods duty- and tax-free for up to a year in to 90+ countries and territories.  Think of it as a built-in tax incentive that saves you money, streamlines customs clearance, and eliminates red tape.
 

Why Choose Boomerang Carnets

For nearly 40 years in the U.S. and over a decade in the U.K., boomerang carnets has helped businesses, individuals, and organizations clear goods through foreign customs with ease.  When you work with us, you get:

• Expertly issued ATA Carnets based on decades of experience and knowledge
• Up-to-date, destination-specific resources to assist with travel plans and smooth the trip  
• Top rated customer service and support available 24/7 with personal attention

We simplify the process so you can focus on growing globally—not on paperwork.

Here’s what one of our recent customers, Felipe Mendoza, had to say:

“Super easy and straightforward. Everything was done a lot quicker than I was expecting. I’m going to have my carnet in my hands just a few short days after barely beginning the process. Customer Service (Marge) was incredibly attentive and helpful. Will definitely recommend whoever needs a carnet to do it through Boomerang.”
 

Updated: VAT & Duty Rates by Country

We’ve just updated our VAT & Duty Rates Page, an essential resource for anyone considering an ATA Carnet.  This comprehensive guide covers all countries and territories in the Carnet system, including:

• Current VAT and duty rates by country and territory
• Notes on special excise and luxury taxes (e.g., on vehicles, alcohol, and other goods)
• Separate listings for dependent territories, which often have different rates than their parent countries

With about 85% of Carnet countries and territories recently updating their VAT and duty rates, this resource is more valuable than ever.  And remember—these are the taxes and duties you’ll avoid when using an ATA Carnet.

Please note: VAT and duty rates change frequently.  Always double-check with another reliable source or contact us directly if you have questions about a specific country.
