Best Answer

The most common term for such a tax is to call it a "Tariff" and this is also the historical name. With the streamlining of international transactions in the 19th and 20th centuries, other terms such as "Customs Duty" or "Import Duty" have been used. In addition, the WTO has provided for two other forms of taxes that can be placed on imported goods and services as punishment to other countries for illegal economic practices and these are called "Anti-dumping Duties" and "Countervailing Duties".
