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.

Compiled by Distillers Hub in October 2026 from the World Bank, WHO, UN Comtrade, the WITS tariff database and the sources below. Figures change: check with the regulator or a customs broker before you act.

About Réunion

Réunion is a French overseas department located in the Indian Ocean, east of Madagascar. French is the official language, spoken alongside Réunion Creole. The island's economy is traditionally driven by sugarcane cultivation, agriculture, and tourism.

The spirits market

Spirits are legal for adults aged 18 and over, with imports handled by EU-registered businesses holding an EORI number through licensed private channels. Local production focuses heavily on rum, punch, and rhum arrangé, which benefit from reduced tax rates. Imported spirits face high cumulative duties, including French excise at €1,932.42/hlpa, social contributions, and a 61.5% Octroi de mer. Despite this tax burden, steady commercial opportunities exist for exporters of premium spirits such as Scotch whisky, craft gin, and cognac.
