Capitale: Basse-Terre
Panoramica
Guadeloupe (ISO GP) is a French overseas department (DOM) and an EU outermost region in the eastern Caribbean, made up of the main islands Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre plus Marie-Galante, Les Saintes and La Desirade. The administrative seat is Basse-Terre, while the economic centre is the Pointe-a-Pitre/Les Abymes area. According to INSEE, the population was about 384,160 on 1 January 2023, with a slight downward trend. For logistics, Guadeloupe is part of the EU customs union but forms its own tax territory: a reduced VAT applies (8.5 percent standard, 2.1 percent reduced) together with the octroi de mer (dock dues), a centuries-old levy on imports and local production. The economy is heavily import-dependent, especially for food, fuel, vehicles and industrial goods, while exports (bananas, rum, sugar) are limited. The main supply hub is the Grand Port Maritime de la Guadeloupe (Guadeloupe Port Caraibes) with its container terminal at Jarry/Baie-Mahault; air freight runs through Guadeloupe - Maryse Conde airport (PTP, formerly Pole Caraibes). The currency is the euro.

Guadeloupe is part of the EU customs union, so no EU import duty applies to Union goods. However, the octroi de mer on imports and local VAT do apply.
The standard rate is 8.5 percent and the reduced rate 2.1 percent, lower than in mainland France. Source: French tax authority BOFiP.
The octroi de mer (dock dues) is a traditional levy on imported goods (regardless of origin) and local production, plus a regional dock due up to 2.5 percent. Rates are set by the regional councils.
Sea freight runs through the Grand Port Maritime de la Guadeloupe (Guadeloupe Port Caraibes) with its terminal at Jarry/Pointe-a-Pitre; air freight through Guadeloupe - Maryse Conde airport (PTP).
Since 1 April 2023, consignments under 400 euro from mainland France or an EU member state are exempt from VAT. Octroi de mer may still apply.
