Estimates only. Freight rates move weekly, duty depends on the exact 10-digit tariff line, and anti-dumping duties are not included — a mattress or wooden-bedroom order from China can carry triple-digit AD rates. We verify every line against your real quotation before you commit money.

Freight is not one numberLCL is priced per m³ with fixed charges that hurt small shipments; FCL is priced per container. Below ~14 m³ LCL usually wins.
Duty is on CIF, not FOBDuty is charged on goods + freight + insurance, so expensive freight silently raises your duty bill too.
VAT is usually recoverableImport VAT is a cash-flow cost for registered businesses, not a permanent one. Duty is permanent.

Questions about the numbers

Why is my landed cost 1.3–1.8× the factory price?

Because the factory price only covers goods. Freight, duty, VAT, entry fees and inspection typically add 30–80% on top for furniture and home goods. On low-value heavy items the multiple can be worse.

Should I use LCL or FCL?

Under about 14 m³ LCL is normally cheaper, above that FCL wins and travels sealed. The calculator picks the cheaper option automatically unless you override it.

Are these duty rates exact?

No. They are indicative 2026 layers by product family. The binding rate depends on the exact HTS or tariff code, the material composition, and whether an anti-dumping or countervailing order applies. Use the override field if your broker gave you a rate.
