US import duty calculator

Compare the same item and condition using both delivered prices. In this hypothetical example, a Japan-made console is $180, documented international freight $40, duty $22.50 and a stated private courier quote $15. The import estimate is $257.50. Another $10 of confirmed non-customs buying costs makes a $267.50 shopping budget, $32.50 below the assumed $300 US delivered price. These are synthetic quotes, not a current listing, proxy tariff or shipping offer. Manufacturing origin, classification, valuation and actual quotes must be confirmed.

For the selected non-porcelain ceramic tableware (HTS 6912.00.50), $100 goods plus $20 documented international freight gives $149.46 under the 2026-10-05 rule snapshot. Duty is $12.50 (12.5% combined), the CBP dutiable mail fee is $7.61, and USPS clearance is $9.35. This assumes informal non-EMS post with CBP-prepared documentation, no valuation additions and no separate proxy-service fees. Porcelain and other classifications need their own rates.

No. A shop in Japan can sell goods manufactured elsewhere. “Shipped from” describes the dispatch country; “made in” selects the manufacturing-origin rules. Ask the seller if you do not know the origin. The calculator does not substitute the shop’s address for it.

This calculator starts with a goods-only price and any required valuation additions. Identifiable actual international freight supported by carrier or forwarder evidence is excluded from customs value, but stays in landed cost. An estimated freight amount is not enough to establish that exclusion.

UPS, FedEx, DHL and formal-entry broker or bond costs depend on the shipment and service. Enter a carrier/broker fee quote that excludes duty and government fees already shown. Until then, the result is a known subtotal rather than a complete bill or a cheapest-carrier recommendation.

Yes. Budget mode uses rules checked 2026-10-05 and announced fee schedules effective on your expected entry date, currently through 2027-09-30. It shows the snapshot version and dates beside the result; later changes may affect your bill. Historical entries use 2026-07-24 through 2026-10-05. Each category represents one HTS product; other materials, classifications and preferential claims need confirmation.

No. This is a direct-purchase example with no separate proxy-buying, packing or storage charges. Add separately payable service costs to your shopping budget and confirm whether any belong in customs value. Keep them separate from documented international freight and from duty or government fees already counted.
