Quote landed cost at checkout

Calculate duties, import taxes and fees as the shopper checks out, collect them once, and deliver without a surprise bill at the door.

Why it matters

  • No surprise fees

    Shoppers pay the full amount up front.

  • Smoother delivery

    Parcels clear customs without waiting for the recipient to pay.

  • Fewer refused parcels

    Duty-inclusive orders get refused less often.

What's inside

Calculation

  • Duty by HS code and destination
  • VAT, GST and import taxes
  • De minimis thresholds applied

How it works

  1. 1

    Classify

    Each product gets an HS code.

  2. 2

    Quote

    At checkout we calculate duty and tax for the destination.

  3. 3

    Collect

    The shopper pays one total.

  4. 4

    Clear

    Duties are prepaid so the parcel clears without delay.

We stopped guessing which fees would land on an order. Duty-inclusive prices took returns down with them.
