Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this landed cost calculator?
This calculator uses standard Ghana Revenue Authority duty rates and government levy percentages. Actual costs may vary based on specific HS codes, exemptions, or changes in duty rates. For precise calculations on every batch, use ImportBrain's full Landed Cost Engine.
What is included in the landed cost?
The landed cost includes your product cost, shipping cost, import duty (based on category), ECOWAS levy (0.5%), NHIL (2.5%), GETFund (2.5%), and VAT (15%). All values are converted to Ghana cedis at the exchange rate you specify.
What exchange rate should I use?
Use the rate from your forex bureau or the rate at which you actually buy dollars/yuan. Bank rates and bureau rates differ — use the one you actually pay. ImportBrain tracks real-time rates automatically.
Can I use this for any product category?
Yes — select the category that best matches your product. Duty rates range from 5% (machinery) to 20% (most consumer goods). For products with special HS code classifications, your actual rate may differ.
