U.S. Tariffs (Import Duties) and Import Taxes

Since August 29, 2025, the United States has removed the longstanding de minimis exemption for all countries. This means that all shipments are now subject to import duties and customs taxes upon arrival, which are applied by UPS.

Given the evolving legal and regulatory landscape, tariff treatment may change further. For the most up-to-date tariff information, we recommend consulting your local customs broker or visiting the official U.S. Customs Tariff portal: https://hts.usitc.gov before importation.

Import Duties and HS Codes

Import duties are taxes imposed by governments on goods entering a country. Harmonized System (HS) codes are an internationally standardized product classification system used during customs processing. Customs authorities rely on HS codes to determine the applicable duties, taxes, and fees for imported goods.

HS codes generally consist of six digits, although individual countries may extend them for more detailed product classifications. You can identify the appropriate HS code for your product by using online resources such as Access2Markets or by consulting a customs representative.
