How it works

The formula

Exactly what this calculator does with your numbers — no hidden assumptions.

01inventory_2

Total landed cost

Product cost + freight + insurance + import duty + other fees, for the whole shipment.

02account_balance

Import duty

Duty rate × dutiable value. The US generally uses the product (transaction) value; many countries, including the EU, use CIF value — product + freight + insurance.

03calculate

Per unit

Total landed cost ÷ number of units. Use this, not the supplier price, as the cost in your margin and pricing calculations.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Q1Why does landed cost matter?
Pricing from the supplier price alone hides freight, duty and fees that can add 20–50% to each unit. Many sellers discover their “profitable” product loses money once landed cost is counted.
Q2Where do I find my duty rate?
Find your product’s HS (Harmonized System) code, then look up the rate in your destination country’s tariff schedule (for the US, the Harmonized Tariff Schedule). Additional tariffs may apply based on country of origin.
Q3What goes in “other fees”?
Customs broker fees, port and terminal charges, customs processing fees, inspections, warehousing and prep — anything paid to get goods ready to sell.

Estimates only — not customs or tax advice. Duty rules, additional tariffs and fees vary by country, product and origin. Confirm with a licensed customs broker.
