| This guide exists for American customers to calculate duties and tariffs on our products before placing an order.
| |
| | |
| Orders to the USA with a total value under $800 USD will '''not''' pay any duties or tariffs. In this case, you will not have to pay anything beyond what you pay when you complete your order on our website.
| |
| | |
| == Step 1 - Look up Duty Value in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule ==
| |
| * Go to the page for your Phidgets product and click on the '''Specifications''' tab
| |
| * Copy the American HTS Import Code listed there
| |
| * Go to [https://hts.usitc.gov https://hts.usitc.gov]
| |
| * Paste the import code into the search bar
| |
| * Look at the "Rates of Duty" column
| |
| * Most products will be under the 'General' rate of duty
| |
| * Some products may be duty-exempt under NAFTA or other treaties depending on country of origin - these are specified in the Special column
| |
| | |
| You now have the base Duty for this product.
| |
| | |
| == Step 2 - Check For Additional Tariff(s) ==
| |
| | |
| The US government has placed tariffs on certain products originating from China. There are several [https://ustr.gov/issue-areas/enforcement/section-301-investigations/tariff-actions lists] taxed at different rates that your product might fall under. Go back to the specifications for your product and check the Country of Origin. If it says "China", continue with the steps in this section.
| |
| | |
| * Go to [https://ustr.gov/issue-areas/enforcement/section-301-investigations/search this page] and type in the first 8 digits of the 10-digit HTS Import code at the bottom of the page.
| |
| * This will list whether the code is under tariff and which list (1, 2, 3, 4A, 4B) it's on
