Revenue Tariff
Sometimes the main intention of the government in imposing a tariff may be to
obtain revenue. When raising revenue is the primary motive, the rates of duty
are generally low, lest imports should be highly discouraged, defeating the
objective of mobilizing revenue for the government. Revenue tariffs tend to fall
on articles of mass consumption.
Protective Tariff
Protective tariff is intended primarily, to accord protection to domestic
industries from foreign competition. Naturally, the rates of duty tend to be very
high in this case because generally, only high rates of duty curtail imports to a
significant extent.
