Thread: Can I bring a 500 KW Diesel Generator

I struggled to find the right forum for this post, but figured that this would probably not fall under household items.

Any advise on bringing in VERY large used items, like that?
I also contemplate to travel with my Jacuzzi. A man has basic needs.

I read somewhere that the maximum import tax is 15%. It that correct information?

do you mean 5000kw genset? as a 500 watt one will not run your toaster , to buy a 5000 watt diesel genset here from the DO IT CENTRE is $ 1600 or 1700 . so now you decide if it is worth bringing down one

5000kw means 5000 kilo watts which is 5 megawatts. Even 500Kw is huge - 5000 watts or 5Kw is a normal size home portable generator.

Import duty depends on the item - there is a list on the Internet if you search for it.

I did mean 500 KW like in 1/2 giga watt, it is the size of an 18 wheeler and can power a walmart or a small town. It's more like in the $xxx,xxx range.

500KW is possible!
