Calculate how much 2025 Trump-era tariffs add to the cost of imported goods. Choose a tariff category — 10% global baseline, 25% for Canada/Mexico/steel/autos, 145% on China — or enter a custom rate to get the total landed cost, tariff amount and share of total cost.

How does this calculator work?
Total cost = import price × (1 + tariff rate / 100). The 2025 Trump tariff schedule (estimates, editable) includes 10% on most imports, 25% on Canada/Mexico/steel/autos, and ~145% on China. The importer pays the tariff; costs are typically passed on to buyers. Verify rates at usitc.gov for your specific product code.
Formula
How this is calculated
A tariff (import duty) is a tax levied on goods crossing the border, typically expressed as a percentage of the declared import value (ad valorem). Under the Trump administration in 2025, the United States imposed a series of broad tariffs: a 10% baseline rate on imports from most countries, 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, a 25% rate on steel and aluminium under Section 232, 25% on automobiles and parts, and cumulative tariffs on Chinese goods estimated at around 145% as of mid-2025. These rates layer on top of existing pre-2025 duties in some categories.
The tariff is paid by the US importer at the port of entry, not by the exporting country. The cost is typically passed through to buyers in the supply chain and, ultimately, to consumers. The total landed cost equals the original invoice price plus the tariff amount. For goods subject to multiple overlapping tariff actions, the effective rate may be higher than any single measure — only the total rate entered in this calculator is used.
Rates announced by the administration changed significantly throughout 2025 and may differ from the presets here. Always verify the current Harmonised Tariff Schedule (HTS) rate for a specific product before making procurement or pricing decisions. The presets are estimates for common categories and are editable.
Frequently asked questions
The US importer of record pays the tariff to US Customs and Border Protection at the port of entry, not the foreign exporter. Importers typically pass some or all of the additional cost to their customers through higher prices. Research on 2018–2019 tariffs found that US consumers and firms absorbed nearly all of the cost with little pass-through to foreign exporters in most categories.
No — tariff rates under executive authority can be changed by presidential proclamation without an act of Congress. Rates were paused, raised, and renegotiated several times in 2025. Always check the current Official Harmonised Tariff Schedule (HTS) maintained by the International Trade Commission (usitc.gov) for the exact rate on a specific HTS code.
Tariffs are generally applied to the customs value of the imported goods — typically the transaction price (invoice value in USD). Freight and insurance may be included depending on the valuation method. If you paid for shipping separately, the dutiable value may be just the product price; confirm with your customs broker for your specific situation.
