Buyer-cost calculator
Estimate what your buyer pays in total (item, shipping, duty, VAT/GST and carrier fees) and what you need to collect if you ship DDP. Rates are dated and sourced. Anything we have not verified is labelled.
How the calculator works
- Exchange rates: ECB reference rates of 9 Nov 2026. Thresholds are compared in the destination currency.
- Preset duty rates come from the official US (USITC HTS) and UK (UK Trade Tariff) databases, checked 20 Oct 2026 (India-related products added 24 Oct 2026). EU third-country rates from TARIC are preset for the India-related products (checked 25 Oct 2026; not used for US-origin goods, which may get lower EU rates). Canadian and Australian product rates, and EU rates for other products, are not preset yet; enter your own.
- US duty is calculated on the goods value. UK and EU duty is calculated on goods plus shipping. Both are simplifications.
- Carrier fees are included only when there is a published figure we could cite. For DHL Express, FedEx and UPS we use their published disbursement / duty-processing fees (the higher of a minimum or a percentage of the duties and taxes they pay for the buyer), taken from each carrier's official fee page and dated. EU figures use the German (FedEx: euro-area) rate as a guide. Otherwise you are prompted to enter a fee.
- This is an estimate, not a customs ruling. See the methodology and disclaimer.
