Landed Cost FAQ

What is landed cost?

Landed cost is the total cost of getting an imported product to your door: product cost + shipping + insurance + duties/tariffs + MPF + HMF + brokerage + handling. It represents the true cost beyond just the purchase price.

How do you calculate landed cost?

Landed Cost = Product Cost + International Shipping + Insurance + Customs Duties (base MFN + Section 301/232/122) + MPF (0.3464%) + HMF (0.125% for ocean) + Brokerage Fees. Our calculator handles this automatically with real-time tariff stacking.

Why is landed cost important for importers?

Landed cost determines your true product margin. Many importers underestimate costs by 15-30% when they only consider product price and shipping. With tariff volatility in 2025-2026, real-time landed cost visibility is critical for pricing, supplier negotiations, and sourcing strategy.

What fees are included in landed cost?

Product cost (FOB/CIF), freight (ocean/air/ground), insurance (0.5-1%), customs duties (varies by HTS and origin), MPF ($31.67-$614.35), HMF (0.125% for ocean), customs broker fee ($150-$250), and any additional tariffs (Section 301, 232, reciprocal, Section 122).
