United States parcels

US import duty calculator

Estimate the likely delivery-company charge for a non-gift, non-excise parcel entering United States.

Carrier fee

Rules as of 2026-06, last checked (version 2026.06.25-v1). Note: 2026 de-minimis rules are changing — always confirm the current rule with the official source before relying on this estimate.

How the US threshold works

Section 321 de-minimis (historically USD 800). Concretely, customs duty is generally not charged on consignments at or below USD 800; this model does not add a separate federal import tax for United States. This estimate does not model gifts, excise goods, business imports, or customs reliefs.

What still needs precision

Category rates are deliberately broad and flagged for review. Each should be narrowed with representative commodity or tariff codes and an official source before relying on it for a real shipment.

FAQ

What is the US import threshold for consumer parcels?

Section 321 de-minimis (historically USD 800). In practice, customs duty is generally not charged on consignments at or below USD 800; this model does not add a separate federal import tax for United States.

What does this US calculator include?

It estimates item price, shipping, insurance, simplified customs duty, estimated duty only, a carrier handling fee, and the total landed cost. It excludes excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco.

Is this a customs classification tool?

No. It uses simplified category buckets, so final charges depend on the exact commodity or tariff code, origin, reliefs, and the carrier's clearance process.

Estimate only. This calculator does not provide customs, legal, or tax advice. Final charges are determined by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the parcel carrier. The de-minimis treatment of low-value imports is changing during 2026; always confirm the current rule with the official source before relying on this estimate.
