๐Ÿ“– Customs Cost Guide

Beyond the filing fee: name counts and inspections

Base clearance covers a handful of product names (often 5) โ€” 25 names means 20 over-name fees. Inspection is a probabilistic cost: one exam runs $120โ€“220 equivalent; budget the expected value. Both are the most-missed hidden customs costs.

The tool splits customs & names / docs & agency / expected inspection / terminal ops / transport and reports cost per unit and % of declared value โ€” normal exports run 1โ€“3% of value. Duties and import VAT are excluded; pair with the Landed Cost tool.
