How much will US customs charge me?

Check the rules and confirmed CBP fees for your shipment. Duty and landed cost stay UNKNOWN until every required charge is supported; an HTS reference alone does not perform a lookup.

Shipment Review

Shipment details

Country of origin

Confirmed entry / MPF treatment

Use your broker's confirmed procedure. Value alone is insufficient; ordinary formal mail and Inbound EMS have different MPF treatment.

Declared value (USD)

The price you actually paid for the goods, before shipping.

Tariff snapshot: 2026-10-26

HTSUS base duty is UNKNOWN: a broad category has no unique tariff rate; no verified HTS lookup is connected here.
Section 232 is UNKNOWN: classification, origin, annex and metal/U.S. content determine the rate; 50% is not universal.
Brokerage is UNKNOWN: no carrier service, contract or published tariff supports the former estimates. Ask your carrier for a quote.
China Section 301 duty is UNKNOWN: the exact HTS classification and applicable exclusions are required.
Section 301 forced-labor charge is UNKNOWN: product exclusions, transit relief and any net-of-MFN calculation have not been established.
Published country rate: 12.5%, before exemptions. This is not an assessed charge.
MPF is UNKNOWN until the entry procedure and fee exemption are confirmed. Value alone does not establish informal entry; formal postal mail also depends on Inbound EMS status.
Total duty and landed cost remain UNKNOWN while any component is unavailable. UNKNOWN is not a duty-free result.

Sources reviewed 2026-10-26; unverified amounts excluded. UNKNOWN does not mean zero. Confirm classification and fees with your broker.

Verified 2026-10-26 · CBP · USITC · Federal Register

A category is not a customs classification. Unsupported duty rates and brokerage charges are excluded, and the total stays UNKNOWN.

The sources have been reviewed, but that does not establish the missing facts about your shipment. UNKNOWN is not zero and is not a duty-free result. An HTS code entered above is a reference only; this tool does not perform an HTS lookup.

What is verified, and what is excluded?

Source review on 26 October 2026
Component	Treatment	Official source / reason
HTSUS base duty	UNKNOWN for all 16 categories	No unique HTS8/10 classification supports the category rates. USITC classification rules.
China Section 301 lists	UNKNOWN for China; no China-list charge for genuine Hong Kong origin	Exact classification and exclusions are required. USTR product search; CBP Hong Kong distinction. Shipping country is not necessarily origin.
Section 232	UNKNOWN	A blanket 50% is not supported: annex, origin and content matter. Proclamation 11032 and 14 October U.S.-content guidance.
Section 122	10% standard rate, 24 February to 24 July 2026; exceptions apply	Historical applicability is UNKNOWN without exemption checks; no current surcharge added. CBP CSMS 67844987. It cannot be stacked indiscriminately on Section 232 goods.
Section 301 forced labor	Country rates verified; shipment charge UNKNOWN	CBP CSMS 69326983: effective 24 July 2026, headings 9903.05.20–9903.05.84. Product, transit and country exceptions must be checked; no category-wide exemption is assumed.
MPF	Calculated only after treatment is confirmed	FY2027 table 2: 0.3464%, minimum $34.58, maximum $670.86; automated informal fee $2.77. 19 CFR 24.23 sets exemptions. Formal postal mail stays UNKNOWN unless an exemption is confirmed, because Inbound EMS differs.
HMF	Ocean charge UNKNOWN unless informal eligibility is confirmed	19 CFR 24.24: 0.125% at covered ports, with exceptions. Eligible informal imports are exempt under (d)(3). No HMF for non-ocean shipping.
Carrier brokerage	UNKNOWN for postal, courier, air freight and ocean	No named service, carrier tariff or contract supported the former flat fees, percentages or caps. All are excluded. Obtain a carrier quote; no amount has been substituted.

The removed category rates covered electronics, textiles, apparel, footwear, leather goods, jewelry, toys, home goods, kitchenware, beauty products, printed books, auto parts, steel/aluminum, EV batteries, semiconductors and other goods. Even a former 0% is now UNKNOWN where classification was not established. The calculator does not add unknown components or show a partial sum as a complete total.

How to use the result

Choose the actual country of origin, describe the goods and enter customs value. The place of dispatch does not establish origin.
Leave entry / MPF treatment unconfirmed unless your broker has established it. The $2,500 ceiling in 19 CFR 143.21 has exceptions; it does not prove informal eligibility.
Confirmed non-postal formal entries use the FY2027 MPF formula. Confirmed automated informal entries use $2.77, except postal mail, which is MPF-exempt. An independently confirmed MPF exemption yields zero MPF.
Obtain the exact HTS classification, applicable additional duties and a brokerage quote before relying on a total. The tool withholds duty and landed-cost totals while any charge is unknown. Sales/use tax and freight are not included.

Rules checked in this review

Is the $800 exemption available?

The low-value exemption under Section 321(a)(2)(C) was suspended from 29 August 2025 by EO 14324 implementation, continued by EO 14388 and CBP's June 2026 regulations. This does not mean every parcel owes a positive duty: product and other statutory exemptions still matter.

What changed for postal shipments?

CBP's final rule of 22 October 2026 extends compliance with certain formal postal entry requirements to 20 January 2027. The new postal informal process began on 24 July 2026, and the Entry Type 13 test on 22 September. Confirm the actual procedure; the October proposal on low-value shipments is not treated as an effective rule.

What happened to IEEPA tariffs?

The Supreme Court decision of 20 February 2026 held that IEEPA does not authorise tariffs. No IEEPA tariff is added here. Section 232 and Section 301 rely on different authorities.

What country rates does the forced-labor action publish?

For this tool's origins, CBP lists 12.5% for China, Hong Kong and Vietnam; 10% for the UK, India, Canada and Mexico. The EU has a combined MFN target of 10%; Japan and South Korea 12.5%. These are published rules, not shipment assessments. OTHER has no rate. Relief includes qualifying USMCA entries, specified products and goods in transit before 24 July and entered before 28 July 2026. Country headings and exceptions.

This is not a customs assessment

Verified rules do not replace the facts needed to classify a shipment. No rate is guessed for unsupported categories, and missing charges are never treated as zero. Confirm duties, fees and carrier charges before purchase or filing.
