Say you ship 500 synthetic women's underpants & briefs from China by ocean, declared at $3.00 each (FOB). The value is $1,500.00; duty at 35.6% is $534.00; at $2,500 or less it is an informal entry, so the Merchandise Processing Fee is $2.77; the Harbor Maintenance Fee is $1.88. Duty and fees come to $538.65, or $1.08 per unit. The same shipment from Bangladesh comes to $388.65, $0.78 per unit, saving $0.30 per unit.
