- Import duty on spirits
- French overseas department inside the EU customs territory, so the EU Common Customs Tariff applies (third-country duty is 0% on the high-value rum line checked; other 2208 lines not individually read, and the UK tariff derived from it shows 0% on most spirits). On top: French/DOM excise on alcohol, a local surcharge (successor to the octroi de mer-type duty) and a social-security contribution on drinks above 18% vol. Special reduced excise applies only to rum/spirits made and consumed in the same department.

About French Guiana
French Guiana is an overseas department and region of France located on the northeastern coast of South America. French is the official language, alongside local creoles and regional languages. Its economy is primarily driven by the aerospace sector at the European spaceport, alongside forestry, gold mining, and fishing.
The spirits market
Alcohol sales are legal for adults aged 18, though dry zones and transport restrictions exist in interior riverway areas. Registered businesses with an EORI number can import spirits for distribution through licensed retailers and venues. While exempt from standard VAT, spirits face excise duties of ~€1,866.52/hlap and Octroi de mer rates ranging from 20% to over 50%. Local producers focus on rum, punchs, and liqueurs, while Cayenne and Kourou offer opportunities for premium imports despite heavy duties.
