Many times \"arancel\" means \"import duty\". However, it can also mean \"export duty\".
That is why in Diccionario de Negocios by Urrutia we have:
\"arancel aduanero o de aduana o de importación = schedule of customs duties, import tariff\"
\"arancel de exportación = export taxes, duties on exports\"
Also notice in meaning number 1 above from the Random House Dictionary it mentions both \"import\" and \"export\"
