Pre-Aug 29, 2025 this would have been $0.00 under the $800 de minimis exemption — you are paying $27.81 more than the same parcel cost under the pre-repeal regime.

Note: the former IEEPA “reciprocal” and China “fentanyl” tariffs were struck down by the Supreme Court on Feb 20, 2026 and replaced by the single Section 122 surcharge above — this calculator reflects the post-ruling stack.

Buying to resell, not just to wear? Automate the landed cost
The checker above estimates one haul. Easyship is a shipping and landed-cost platform that calculates duties and taxes at checkout and generates the customs paperwork — useful only if you import or resell at scale, not for a one-off order.
Honest disclosure: this is an external link to easyship.com. We are not yet in their partner program, so it carries no tracking ID and earns nothing today; if we join later this link may become a paid referral. It never changes the duty figures above, which come only from official CBP / USTR / Federal-Register data.

The $800 Section-321 de-minimis exemption ended on 29 August 2025 — so a cheap Temu, Shein, or AliExpress haul from China is no longer duty-free. Enter your cart and read the assessed duty straight off the magenta customs label on the parcel.

A China-origin marketplace parcel now stacks the HTSUS base duty + USTR Section 301 (China-only) + a flat 10% Section 122 surcharge (the replacement for the IEEPA tariffs the Supreme Court struck down on 20 February 2026) + the CBP Merchandise Processing Fee — charged on every entry now that de minimis is gone.

As of February 24, 2026, a Temu, Shein, or AliExpress parcel from China is taxed under a new stack: HTSUS base duty + USTR Section 301 (China-only) + a Section 122 global surcharge of 10% + the Merchandise Processing Fee. The earlier IEEPA “reciprocal” and China “fentanyl” tariffs were struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court on February 20, 2026 (6-3) and replaced by the single Section 122 surcharge below — which carries a statutory 15% cap and a sunset of July 24, 2026 unless extended. The $800 duty-free de minimis exemption has been gone since August 29, 2025. (The Section 122 surcharge was itself ruled unlawful by the Court of International Trade on May 7, 2026, but a Federal Circuit administrative stay of May 12, 2026 keeps it in force and being collected while the government’s appeal proceeds, so this tool still applies it.)

Estimate only — not legal or tax advice
Duty estimates use CBP HTSUS 2026 base rates + USTR Section 301 (China-only) + the Section 122 global surcharge (10%, in force since Feb 24, 2026) + the Merchandise Processing Fee schedule. The IEEPA reciprocal and fentanyl tariffs were struck down by the Supreme Court on Feb 20, 2026 and are no longer applied. Final duty is determined by US Customs and Border Protection at the time of entry. This tool is for consumer education and does not constitute customs, legal, or tax advice.

Temu & Shein import tax — FAQ
Do I have to pay duty on Temu and Shein orders now?
Yes. Since the $800 de minimis exemption was eliminated on August 29, 2025, parcels of any value entering the United States are dutiable. A China-origin parcel now carries the HTSUS base duty, Section 301, the 10% Section 122 surcharge, and the Merchandise Processing Fee.
What happened to the IEEPA reciprocal and fentanyl tariffs?
The Supreme Court struck them down on February 20, 2026, ruling that IEEPA does not authorize tariffs. The administration replaced them the same day with a single Section 122 surcharge under the Trade Act of 1974. This calculator no longer shows the IEEPA layers.
What is the Section 122 surcharge and how long does it last?
It is a temporary import surcharge of 10% on goods from all countries, effective February 24, 2026. The statute caps it at 15% and limits it to 150 days, so it is scheduled to expire on July 24, 2026 unless extended or replaced.
Is the effective rate really 30%+ on a cheap parcel?
It can be. Because the MFN base duty, Section 301, the Section 122 surcharge, and the flat Merchandise Processing Fee all stack on a China-origin parcel rather than replacing one another, the combined effective rate can land well above the MFN base alone. The exact number depends on your cart total, the HTSUS category, and which Section 301 list applies — the checker above shows the exact effective rate for your cart.
Did packages ever get a flat per-item fee instead?
Yes — between August 29, 2025 and February 28, 2026, carriers could elect a flat postal specific duty of $80, $160, or $200 per item instead of ad valorem. That option expired February 28, 2026, so all postal parcels are now assessed ad valorem, which is the basis this tool uses.
Is this an official CBP figure?
No. This is a consumer estimate built from published rate schedules. U.S. Customs and Border Protection determines the final duty at entry based on the exact HTSUS classification and origin documentation. See the methodology page for scope and sources.
