Quick answer
Use this page to decide the next sourcing step
Before supplier payment
A sourcing page should end in a decision, not a vague promise
Every Supplymo page should help you decide whether to continue, sample first, request information, request a quote, manually review, or stop before paying a supplier.
Before supplier payment system
Product check first. Supplier payment only after the decision is clear.
Supplymo is not an open-ended sourcing promise. It is a pre-payment decision workflow: collect the product clue, expose missing fields and risk, then decide whether to stop, sample, quote, or move into assisted ordering.
Submit one product clue
Send a 1688, Shopify, AliExpress, CJ, Amazon, TikTok Shop link, image clue, keyword, quantity, destination, or prep note.
Get a written pre-payment check
Supplymo separates match quality, MOQ pressure, landed cost assumptions, prep needs, supplier signals, missing fields, and risk flags.
Choose the next action
The output says continue, sample first, request info, request quote, manual review, change route, or stop before supplier payment.
Trust boundary
No supplier payment is created by submitting a product clue.
No lowest-price, supplier-quality, customs, tax, freight, delivery-time, or platform-approval guarantee.
Manual review is required when product, supplier, customs, prep, route, or restricted-goods signals are unclear.
Output
Written decision record, not a fake final quote.
Handoff
Human review when facts are missing or risk is high.
Best fit
Canada 1688 landed cost calculator with GST and CBSA review: check margin before the quote
A cheap 1688 unit price is not the landed cost. Judge it together with MOQ cash, China-side fees, prep, freight, and import costs.
Split fixed fees by quantity
Domestic freight, photo checks, and service work change the per-unit number.
Protect small-batch cashflow
MOQ can tie up cash before a product is proven.
Route before quote
Shipping changes after packed size, weight, destination, and restrictions are known.
China-side cost clarity
Product, domestic shipping, service fee, and prep belong in the estimate before payment.
Buyer-entered import costs
Insurance, duty/tax estimate, broker, and local delivery are easy to miss after the freight quote.
Margin survival check
Compare target selling price against the landed estimate before committing cash.
Workflow
Landed cost check workflow
Decision before payment
The estimate only works when packed data, prep, and route assumptions are visible together.

Questions
Common decisions before requesting a quote
How much is import duty when buying from China?
It depends on your HS code, customs value, country of origin, and current policy — not the product name. This calculator looks up the likely duty by HS code and China origin (including the US Section 301 overlay) and returns an all-in landed-cost estimate. The final duty still needs official HS classification and current measures.
Who pays the import duty — me or the supplier?
It depends on the Incoterms. Under DDP the seller or sourcing agent handles duty and delivery; under DAP or EXW the importer (you) pays. Couriers such as DHL or FedEx may advance the duty and bill you. Supplymo does not replace the carrier or customs broker's final invoice.
Are small parcels from China duty-free (de minimis)?
Do not assume so. It depends on the destination and current policy: the US duty-free de-minimis was suspended in 2025, the UK threshold is GBP 135, Australia AUD 1000, Korea about USD 150, and Indonesia about USD 3. De-minimis policy changes over time, so confirm the current rule with the destination customs authority before you quote.
Do US tariffs or Section 301 apply to my China goods?
They can stack on top of the base duty for covered HS codes. This calculator includes the USTR Section 301 overlay for China-origin goods when you choose a US destination. Confirm the current measures with CBP and USITC, because the policy changes over time.
What is import VAT or GST, and how much is it?
It is the destination tax charged on imports, computed on customs value plus duty. Standard rates include UK 20%, Germany 19%, France 20%, Italy 22%, Spain 21%, Australia GST 10%, Singapore GST 9%, Canada GST 5%, Korea 10%, Indonesia 11%, and Vietnam 10%; the US has no federal import VAT. The calculator applies your market's rate automatically, but reduced rates and reliefs depend on the goods and official rules.
Is import duty the same as import VAT or GST?
No. Duty is a tariff on the goods set by HS code; import VAT or GST is the destination consumption tax charged on customs value plus duty. Both belong in your landed cost, and the calculator shows them as separate lines.
Is this the final landed cost?
No. It is a pre-payment estimate. The final cost depends on supplier quote, quantity, packed size, route, service work, classification, tax, duty, and official review.
How do I calculate landed cost from China before I pay a supplier?
Add the 1688 unit price, quantity, MOQ pressure, China domestic freight, service work, prep, packed dimensions, international freight, insurance, buyer-entered duty or tax, broker/local fees, and missing evidence. If package data or classification is missing, treat the estimate as low confidence and submit a product check before payment.
Is landed cost software enough for a 1688 order?
Software can organize the cost stack, but a 1688 order still needs supplier evidence, package data, HS or commodity-code review, restricted-product screening, and a quote boundary before a buyer approves supplier payment.
Why does the calculator ask for package weight and dimensions?
International shipping often depends on actual weight and volumetric weight. If packed data is missing, the landed cost estimate should stay low-confidence.
Can Supplymo calculate exact duty or VAT from this page?
No. Supplymo can flag when HS, TARIC, HTS, commodity code, customs value, or importer status needs review, but it does not set official duty, tax, or clearance outcomes.
When should I stop instead of requesting a quote?
Stop or request manual review when the product has restricted goods signals, unclear certificates, unrealistic MOQ, weak margin, missing package data, or unclear supplier evidence.
What should I submit after the estimate?
Submit the product link or 1688 supplier clue, quantity, destination, product category, packed weight and dimensions, sales channel, and prep needs for a written check.
Does this replace a product sourcing check?
No. The calculator helps decide whether margin might survive. A product check reviews supplier match, MOQ, SKU clarity, prep, warehouse evidence, restricted goods, and route risk before payment.
Which official sources should I check after this estimate?
Use the official source for the destination market, such as USITC HTS, EU TARIC, GOV.UK Trade Tariff, CBSA Customs Tariff, Australian Border Force, or Singapore Customs. The calculator decides which review is needed; it does not freeze the official duty or tax result.
Should I use the HS code checker before this calculator?
Yes when classification is unknown. If HS, HTS, TARIC, commodity code, product material, or intended use is unclear, run the import-duty readiness check before trusting a landed-cost estimate.
