Import Cost Calculator
Estimate the true landed cost of your next import order — CIF value, duty, VAT, clearing and payment fees — so your pricing is built on numbers, not guesses.
Frequently asked questions
What is landed cost and why does it matter?
Landed cost is everything it takes to get goods onto your shelf: goods value, freight, insurance, import duty, VAT and levies, clearing and port charges, plus payment costs. Pricing from the invoice value alone is how importers accidentally sell at a loss.
How do I find the right duty rate for my goods?
Duty is set by HS code in your country's tariff schedule. Your clearing agent can classify your goods precisely; the calculator lets you plug in any rate so you can compare scenarios before committing to an order.
What payment costs do importers usually forget?
Bank FX spreads (often 2–5% hidden in the rate), flat wire fees, and correspondent deductions that arrive as a shortfall your supplier chases. The calculator includes an illustrative payment fee so the estimate reflects reality.
Can KeyBS Pay reduce my landed cost?
On the payment line, yes: quoted-rate FX with corridor-specific or quote-based pricing typically beats bank wire economics, and the exact cost is confirmed before you pay — making your landed-cost model accurate instead of hopeful.
