How it is calculated: the supplier price times the exchange rate gives the goods value per unit. Duty is the duty rate applied to that goods value. Freight and other costs for the shipment are spread evenly across the quantity, and everything is added together. Nothing you type is stored or sent anywhere: it is all worked out in your browser.

How to use it

Why landed cost matters

The supplier price is only the start. By the time a product is on your shelf, you have paid for the currency, the freight, the duty and a run of smaller costs, and those can add a large share on top.

If your selling prices are set from the supplier price, or from a landed cost someone worked out once and never updated, your margin moves every time the exchange rate or freight does. This calculator gives you the real figure for one shipment.

Duty rates depend on how your goods are classified, and some goods attract none. Use the rate that applies to your product, and check with your customs broker if you are not sure.

In a system built around your business, landed cost is worked out automatically on every shipment you receive, and flows through to your stock value and your margins.

What duty rate should I use?

The rate for your product's tariff classification. Some goods attract none. Check with your customs broker.

Is anything I type saved?

No. It is worked out in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.

Can this happen automatically?

Yes. In a custom system, landed cost is calculated on every shipment you receive. See inventory management.
