Trinidad & Tobago: The government will reduce the rate of duty on other hydraulic cement from 10% to 0%, following the fifth price rise by Trinidad Cement since 2021, including the most recent 7% increase in early 2025.
The nation’s cabinet suspended its cement quota and registration system in February 2024. Cement remains on the import negative list, requiring a licence and compliance with Caricom standards. The legal order for the duty cut will be published in the coming days.
