Paano Kalkulahin si Customs Tariff Duty

Ano ang Customs Tariff Duty?

The Customs Tariff Duty Calculator determines the exact import duty owed on goods entering a country by looking up the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) code and applying the corresponding ad valorem, specific, or compound duty rate to the declared customs value.

Pormula

Duty = Customs Value × Ad Valorem Rate (%) + Specific Duty per Unit × Quantity

CV: Customs Value ($) — Declared transaction value of imported goods including adjustments
R: Ad Valorem Rate (%) — Percentage duty rate from the HTS schedule
S: Specific Rate ($/unit) — Fixed duty amount charged per unit of measure
Q: Quantity (units) — Number of units imported in the applicable unit of measure

2Look up the applicable duty rate (general, special, or column 2) for the HTS code
3Calculate the customs value (transaction value + assists + packing costs)
4Multiply the customs value by the ad valorem percentage and add any per-unit specific duties

Mga madalas itanong

What is the difference between ad valorem and specific duty?

Ad valorem duty is a percentage of the goods value (e.g., 5%), while specific duty is a fixed amount per unit (e.g., $0.50 per kilogram). Some goods have compound duties combining both.

How do I find the correct HTS code for my product?

Use the USITC HTS search tool at hts.usitc.gov, consult a licensed customs broker, or request a binding ruling from CBP for certainty.

Does customs duty apply to samples or gifts?

Generally yes, unless the shipment qualifies under the de minimis threshold ($800 in the US) or falls under a specific exemption for bona fide samples of negligible value.
