This is an estimate, not a customs ruling. The right code depends on fiber content, knit or woven construction, gender and use; 23%+ wool, water-resistant fabrics, hand-loomed goods and other special cases can use other codes. Confirm with a licensed customs broker before you import.
Worked example: one shipment
Say you ship 500 synthetic men's woven shirts from China by ocean, declared at $6.00 each (FOB), about 0.2 kg each (this code also has a per-kg duty). The value is $3,000.00; duty at 45.9% + 29.1¢/kg is $1,406.10; over $2,500 it is a formal entry, so the Merchandise Processing Fee is $34.58; the Harbor Maintenance Fee is $3.75. Duty and fees come to $1,444.43, or $2.89 per unit. The same shipment from Bangladesh comes to $1,144.43, $2.29 per unit, saving $0.60 per unit.
| Item | China | Bangladesh |
|---|---|---|
| Customs value | $3,000.00 | $3,000.00 |
| Duty | $1,406.10 | $1,106.10 |
| Merchandise Processing Fee | $34.58 | $34.58 |
| Harbor Maintenance Fee | $3.75 | $3.75 |
| Shipment total | $1,444.43 | $1,144.43 |
| Per unit | $2.89 | $2.29 |
