What is a US landed-cost calculator?
Landed cost is the true total cost of getting a product to your customer in the United States — the product value plus import duty, customs processing fees and shipping. If you sell on Etsy, eBay, Shopify, Amazon or through dropshipping, this is the number you must know before setting your price. TariffWise estimates it in seconds.
Why import costs changed in 2025
For years, parcels under $800 entered the US duty-free under the “de minimis” rule. That exemption ended on 29 August 2025. Now almost every parcel — even small, low-value ones — can carry import duty and customs fees. Many small sellers saw their real costs jump overnight, and a lot of them still price as if shipping were free. This tool helps you avoid selling at a loss.
How to use it
- Type your product (e.g. “cotton t-shirt”) and let it auto-detect the category.
- Enter the product value in USD and the country of origin.
- See your import duty, customs fees, total landed cost and the price to charge.
Frequently asked questions
Did the $800 de minimis exemption really end?
Yes. Effective 29 August 2025, the US ended the $800 de minimis exemption. Parcels that previously entered duty-free are now subject to duty and customs fees.
How much import duty will I pay to ship to the USA?
It depends on the product category (HTS code), its value and the country of origin. TariffWise estimates the duty, customs processing fee and total landed cost.
Is TariffWise free?
Yes — it is completely free and needs no signup or login. Just open and use it.
Are these numbers exact?
They are careful estimates, not customs or legal advice. Actual duty depends on the exact HTS code and current trade rules, which change often. Always verify before shipping.
