Tariff / Duty

Customs & Compliance

What does Tariff / Duty mean?

A tax charged by customs on imported goods, usually a percentage of the declared value (or per unit). Duty rates vary by HS code and country of origin; free trade agreements can reduce or eliminate them.

Example: Your product's HS code carries a 4.5% US duty rate, adding $450 on a $10,000 shipment.
