Duty rates
- General
- Free
- The base rate for goods from most countries.
- Special
- —
- Lower rates under trade agreements and programs, for goods that meet their rules of origin; each symbol names one.
- Column 2
- 45%
- The higher rate for the few countries without normal trade relations with the United States.
These are base rates, not what you pay. The country of origin can add extra duties (Sections 301, 232 and others), and customs fees come on top: the calculator adds up what applies to your goods, each with its source. Why the base rate is not enough

Duties by country of origin
What the calculator answers today for goods of this code from each country, with no trade agreement claimed and before entry fees, on the 2026 HTS Revision 22: the total as a share of the customs value, and the duties that make it up.
| Made in | Duty rate | Made up of |
|---|---|---|
| Mexico | 10% |
|
| Vietnam | 12.5% |
|
| Germany | 10% |
|
| India | 10% |
|
Each answer takes the ordinary case of the questions these goods raise: Certified as an automobile part for U.S. production or repair: No; Certified as a medium- or heavy-duty vehicle part for U.S. production or repair: No; Donation exemption claimed: No; Informational materials exemption claimed: No; Primary aluminum smelted in Russia, or goods cast in Russia: No; Duty-free USMCA entry claimed: No.
Left to the calculator, as their duties depend on details of the goods: China. An estimate, not a customs decision. Calculate for your goods, with their value, quantity and date of entry.
