US Tariff & Import Duty Calculator

Landed cost is the true, all-in cost of getting one unit from your supplier to the destination country. It adds up the FOB goods price, international freight, cargo insurance, import duty, any extra tariffs, customs fees, and import VAT or GST. Compare that figure, not your factory quote, against your Amazon selling price to know your real margin, because the quote hides every import charge.

Duty is a percentage of the customs value of your goods. The percentage comes from your product's 6-digit HS (Harmonized System) code and the destination's tariff schedule, and rates run from 0% to 20%+ by category and country, so the code you declare changes your cost directly. Enter your HS code and route above and the calculator looks up the official rate for you.

It depends on the destination. Duty is charged on the customs value, not on what you paid the factory. The United States uses the FOB value (goods only), while the EU and UK use the CIF value (goods plus international freight and insurance), so the same shipment usually owes more duty in the EU or UK than in the US at the same rate. The calculator applies the right basis for each marketplace.

Section 301 is a US tariff on many China-origin goods, from 7.5% to over 100% depending on the product's HTS line. It applies on top of the normal import duty whenever you bring affected Chinese-made goods into the US, no matter where you ship from, and temporary surcharges such as Section 122 can stack on top. Together they are often the single biggest line on a China-to-US shipment. Check your exact HTS line, then set the Section 301 rate in the calculator to see the impact.

US entries add two fees on top of duty. The Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) is 0.3464% of the value, with a floor and a cap. The Harbor Maintenance Fee (HMF) is 0.125% and applies to ocean shipments only. Small on their own, they still move your true per-unit cost.

Usually yes. Importing into the UK, EU, Canada, or Australia triggers import VAT or GST, commonly around 20%, collected at the border. If you are VAT or GST registered there, it is typically reclaimable, so treat it as cash flow rather than cost. For low-value UK orders under £135, VAT is collected at the point of sale instead and Amazon remits it.

Most countries set a de minimis threshold, a shipment value below which they skip collecting duty and import tax entirely. If your shipment falls under the destination's threshold, the calculator marks those charges as waived. Thresholds vary widely and change over time, so confirm the current figure and verify final numbers with a licensed customs broker.
