MPF uses the FY2026 formal-entry rate of 0.3464% with a $33.58 minimum and $651.50 maximum. HMF is 0.125% and applies to ocean freight only. Verify your own rates against the CBP user fee table before committing.

Why the per-unit number matters more than the unit price

Where the landed cost goes, per unit A stacked bar showing an 8.50 dollar FOB unit price becoming 14.45 dollars landed, of which 3.27 dollars is duty, 0.07 is customs fees, 2.40 is freight and 0.21 is broker fees. FOB unit price $8.50 Landed cost per unit $14.45 Goods $8.50 Duty $3.27 Freight fees $0.07 broker $0.21 Duty is 38.5% of goods value. Duty plus freight plus fees is 70% of the FOB price again. The orange block is the part that changed in 2025–2026. The grey blocks are the part most quotes leave out. Worked example: 1,000 units at $8.50 FOB · MFN 3.5% · Section 301 25% · other layers 10% · ocean freight $2,400.

A $6.00 unit price and a $9.40 landed cost are not the same business. When duties and fees add 35–40% to the goods value, a product that looked like it had a 60% margin has closer to 25% — and that is before Amazon fees, returns, or your own ad spend.

Two things this calculator makes visible that most quote sheets hide:

How the Merchandise Processing Fee behaves as shipment value rises MPF is a flat 33 dollars 58 below about 9,700 dollars of goods value, then rises at 0.3464 percent, then stops at 651 dollars 50 above about 188,000 dollars. floor $33.58 — below ~$9,700 of goods cap $651.50 — above ~$188,000 $0 $200,000 goods value $650 The flat middle section is why consolidating beats shipping often: one entry pays one MPF.

Two caveats worth reading

The rate on your entry summary is the only rate that counts

The pre-filled percentages are starting points for planning, not a quote. Your HTS classification decides the MFN rate, and whether your product sits on a Section 301 list decides the surcharge. Two similar products can differ by 25 points because of a classification difference.

Trade-remedy rates moved several times in 2025–2026

Different published sources currently describe the stacked rate differently, because the underlying measures were suspended, replaced, or paused at different dates. That is exactly why the "other layers" field is editable rather than fixed. If you have an entry summary from a recent shipment, use the effective rate printed on it.

Numbers look workable?

The next step is finding out whether the factory behind that price is real. That is what the audit is for.
