What you pay on a US import today (June 2026)
With the $800 de-minimis exemption gone since 29 August 2025, a US import now stacks: the HTSUS base duty for the product, a flat 10% Section 122 surcharge in force until its statutory lapse on 24 July 2026 (the replacement for the IEEPA tariffs the Supreme Court struck down on 20 February 2026), Section 232 (50% on steel/aluminum) and Section 301 (China-only) where they apply, plus the CBP Merchandise Processing Fee on every entry.
| Layer | Rate | Authority / status |
|---|---|---|
| HTSUS base duty | 0% β 17.5% by product | HTSUS 2026 (MFN column 1) |
| Across-the-board surcharge | 10% flat, all countries | Section 122 β replaced IEEPA (struck down 20 Feb 2026); lapses 24 Jul 2026 (statutory 150-day limit) |
| Steel / aluminum | 50% | Section 232 β survives the ruling |
| China-origin uplift | 25% β 50% by HTS list | Section 301 β survives the ruling |
| Merchandise Processing Fee | 0.3464% ($33.58β$651.50), or $2.69 informal | CBP user fee β applies to every entry now |

How the calculation works
- Pick the origin country (where the seller ships from) and the broad product category. If you know the HTS10 code, enter it; otherwise the category fallback applies.
- Enter the declared price you actually paid and the shipping method. Ocean cargo also pays the Harbor Maintenance Fee.
- The calculator stacks the duty: HTSUS base + the flat 10% Section 122 surcharge (uniform for every country, applied only for calculation dates before its 24 July 2026 statutory lapse) + Section 232 (steel/aluminum, 50%) + Section 301 (China only).
- The CBP Merchandise Processing Fee is added on every entry β a flat $2.69 for low-value informal parcels, or 0.3464% (bounded $33.58β$651.50) for formal entries over $2,500 β together with a carrier brokerage estimate.
Frequently asked questions
Do I still get the $800 duty-free allowance?
No. The Section-321 $800 de-minimis exemption was eliminated by Executive Order 14324, effective 29 August 2025, and the suspension was continued by Executive Order 14388 in February 2026. Every parcel from a foreign seller is now dutiable, regardless of value.
What happened to the IEEPA "reciprocal" and China tariffs?
On 20 February 2026 the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump that IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs, striking down both the "reciprocal" tariffs and the China trafficking surcharge. Older calculators that still add an IEEPA reciprocal or a 20% China IEEPA surcharge are out of date.
So what is the across-the-board tariff now?
A flat 10% surcharge under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, applied uniformly to imports from every country (the statute forbids country-specific rates). It took effect 24 February 2026 and lapses 24 July 2026 β the statute caps it at 150 days and no congressional extension was pending as of 18 July 2026. This calculator adds the surcharge only for calculation dates before 24 July 2026 and stops adding it automatically from that date.
Is that 10% safe β I read it was also struck down?
The Court of International Trade invalidated the Section 122 surcharge on 7 May 2026, but the Federal Circuit stayed that ruling on 11 June 2026, so CBP kept collecting the 10% during the appeal (except for the three named plaintiff importers). Independently of the litigation, the surcharge lapses 24 July 2026 under the statutory 150-day limit. A possible Section 301 replacement (10β12.5%, country-specific) was pending at USTR β verify current rates for your goods and entry date.
Which tariffs survived the Supreme Court ruling?
Section 232 (steel and aluminum, currently 50%; copper 25%) and Section 301 (China-origin uplifts by USTR list, 25% to 50% for the categories this tool covers) rest on different statutes and are unaffected. The CBP Merchandise Processing Fee and Harbor Maintenance Fee also still apply.
What is the Merchandise Processing Fee?
A statutory CBP user fee charged on every entry now that de-minimis is gone. For most low-value consumer parcels it is a flat $2.69 (automated informal entry). For formal entries over $2,500 it is 0.3464% of the customs value, bounded between $33.58 and $651.50.
What about the old postal flat-rate option ($80/$160/$200)?
That temporary postal flat-rate regime under EO 14324 ran for six months and ended on 28 February 2026. Since then all postal parcels use the ad-valorem path, so this calculator no longer offers the flat-rate option.
Does this include US sales tax?
No. The landed-cost figure covers federal import duties, the CBP fees and a carrier brokerage estimate only. State and local sales/use taxes are charged separately and are not included.

This is an estimate, not customs advice
US tariff law is in active transition. The Supreme Court struck down the IEEPA tariffs in February 2026; the replacement 10% Section 122 surcharge lapses on 24 July 2026 (statutory 150-day limit β no congressional extension was pending as of 18 July 2026), and this calculator stops adding it automatically for entry dates from 24 July 2026. Section 232, Section 301, and the CBP Merchandise Processing Fee survive under separate authority. The final duty assessed at the border depends on the HS10 your broker declares and the rule snapshot in force on the date of entry. Use this as a pre-purchase planning tool, not as a customs declaration.
