Don't forget the fees

FAQs

Does this rate apply to every supplements item?

6.4% is a representative food-preparation MFN rate. Ingredients and product claims can change the heading; FDA rules and China Section 301 exclusions need confirmation.

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.
