All-in 2026 rate by country of origin

The general rate plus every additional duty the engine applies for that origin on November 10, 2026(Section 301, Section 232, Section 201, Section 338, and the forced-labor Section 301 action), as a share of customs value. Columns appear only for origins that carry an additional layer somewhere in this heading; for every other origin the all-in rate is the general rate.

A range means the 10-digit lines under that 8-digit line resolve differently. "+" marks a line with a per-unit duty component the percentage does not capture. "*" marks lines the engine could not price. Chapter 99 headings beneath a rate are the additional-duty provisions applied. AD/CVD, quota, and the regimes listed under "Not included" are not in these numbers.

Not included in the numbers above

Antidumping and countervailing duties, tariff-rate quotas, and partner-agency requirements are never in these rates. The engine also flags regimes it knows about but does not compute for this heading:

  • Section 232Section 232 unmanned aircraft systems (Proclamation 11055 of Aug 13, 2026; 91 FR 53699, FR doc 2026-16979) is NOT modeled: from 2026-09-03 covered UAS and components owe 100% ad valorem (maximum takeoff weight over 25 kg, thermal-imaging drones, docking stations and the Annex I critical components) or 25% (drones of 25 kg or less). Products of the EU, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Switzerland and Liechtenstein are capped at 15% all-in and the UK at 10% where the critical-component origin criteria are met; the Annex III component list is deferred to 2027-02-09. If this line is a drone, a drone part or a docking station the quote UNDERSTATES: price it by hand.

How this page is built

The rate lines are the USITC 2026 HTS Revision 22 export, unedited. The all-in rates come from the Borderless tariff engine (the same code behind the tariff simulator), run for each 8-digit line and origin with an entry date of 2026-11-10; its measures bundle is dated 2026-11-10and cites the Federal Register and CBP notices behind every layer. Page generated 2026-11-10. These are estimates for planning, not classification advice or a filing: the classification of your goods, the origin determination, and any claim are confirmed by a licensed broker before an entry is filed. Maintained by Borderless CHB; Joy Xue, Licensed U.S. customs broker (CBP filer code NQR), confirms the classification and the duty stack on every entry before it is filed.
