A tariff may be one of the four kinds: ad valorem, specific, alternative or compound. An ad valorem, the kind most commonly used, is one that is calculated as a percentage of the value of the imported good—for example, 10, 25 or 35 percent. They may be based, depending on the country, either on the value of the goods landed at the port of destination, or on the value of the goods at the port in the country of origin. A specific duty is a tax of so much local currency per unit of the good imported based on weight, number, length, volume, or other unit of measurement—for example $10 per kilo or per gallon. An alternative duty is where both an ad valorem duty and a specific one are prescribed for a product, with the requirement that the more onerous one shall apply. A compound duty is a combination of an ad valorem duty and specific duty—for example, 15 percent of value plus 5 pence per pound. Some goods are free from import duty.
