import fee
Customs duty payment
An import fee is a charge imposed on goods brought into a country from abroad.
Governments use import fees to generate revenue, protect domestic industries from foreign competition, or discourage imports of certain products.
The term overlaps with tariff and customs duty, though import fee sometimes refers specifically to administrative charges rather than protective taxes: The import fee on electronics added fifteen percent to the cost.
