FAQs
Does this rate apply to every snacks item?
4.3% is the selected non-filled chocolate MFN rate. Filled chocolate, sugar-dependent products and other snacks differ; food requirements remain separate.
Does shipping enter the customs value?
This model starts with a goods-only price plus required valuation additions. Actual, identifiable international freight supported by carrier/forwarder evidence is excluded from duty value and remains in landed cost. A seller estimate does not establish an allowable exclusion.
Which processing and carrier fees apply?
Fees depend on the entry date and procedure. Ordinary mail is generally exempt from MPF; non-EMS dutiable mail documented by CBP can incur a mail fee. Express-facility fees are paid by operators. Private carrier and formal-entry broker/bond charges require a quote.
