Duty rates verified against the HTSUS · MPF at FY2026 · the duty stack · single-item calculator
The single-line landed-cost calculator is for one part. This one takes a whole bill of materials — upload your BOM and it pulls out the power and cable lines automatically, or add them by hand — and returns the duty and fees on each, ranked by exposure, plus the number that matters for a sourcing decision — how much is recoverable by moving origin. Same verified rates as the duty stack. Everything runs in your browser; the BOM is never uploaded.

Drop a BOM — Excel or CSV — here, or — we pull out the power & connectivity lines and skip the rest.

Paste from a spreadsheet
One line per row: HTS or keyword, qty, FOB, origin — e.g. 8504.40.85, 10000, 6.20, china or usb-c, 8000, 1.85, china. Origin defaults to China.
Covers Kestner's power & connectivity codes. Goods + duties + the entry MPF; add freight and broker in the per-item calculator.

Estimate only — not customs, tariff, or legal advice. Duties are modeled on the FOB value as the entered value; HTS categories are Kestner's common codes, so confirm the classification of your parts with a licensed broker before you file. Verify current rates against the duty stack.
How the exposure is built
Each line's duties are ad valorem on its entered value and they add: MFN base + the 25% Section 301 (China only) + the 12.5% forced-labor Section 301 (China and Vietnam; USMCA-Mexico exempt). The Merchandise Processing Fee is not per line — it is charged once per entry at 0.3464% of the non-USMCA entered value, bounded $33.58–$651.50 (FY2026) — so it sits in the summary, not the rows. Recoverable is the duty a line would shed by moving origin: to Vietnam it drops the 25% China List-3 layer; to a USMCA-qualifying Mexico origin it drops the duty entirely.

The recoverable number only holds if the origin holds.
Moving a line to Vietnam sheds the 25% China layer — but only if the origin is genuine substantial transformation, not a Chinese part finished offshore. Kestner sources power and connectivity hardware from qualified lines in both origins and documents the country of origin per unit, so the savings you plan against are the savings that clear.
