Tariffs are duties (or taxes) applied to goods transported from one country to another, or on imported products. Tariffs raise the prices of imported goods, thus making them less competitive within the market of the importing country. Before you export to any country you need to determine what the tariff rate is on your product(s).
Step 1: Determine your HS or Schedule B Number
The first step required to determine duty and tax information is to identify the Harmonized System or Schedule B number for your product(s).
What you pay for your duties will also depend on the trade terms you have negotiated with your buyer.
