BorderTally does not output a numeric U.S. duty or landed-cost total while the 19 U.S.C. 1321(a)(2)(C) duty-free de minimis exemption is suspended for covered merchandise. As checked on 2026-07-11, postal shipments remain in an interim process before the new postal informal-entry process begins on 2026-07-24. A shipment-specific review requires the HTS classification, country of origin, postal or non-postal mode, entry date, applicable trade measures, and entry or carrier fees.
Numeric estimates are paused for this destination. Use the checklist and official sources below to obtain a shipment-specific review.
Use these facts with the current official sources below, your carrier, or a qualified customs broker. BorderTally does not turn a headline threshold into a numeric total when the form is missing facts that can materially change the charge.
Rules as of 2026-07, last checked (version 2026.07.11-v1). Numeric US estimates are paused until the model can collect the shipment-specific inputs required by the current rules.
The former USD 800 general-merchandise exemption in 19 U.S.C. 1321(a)(2)(C) is suspended for covered merchandise. Low value alone no longer provides that duty-free treatment, including for shipments sent through the international postal network. The zero threshold in the data model is only a sentinel that disables automated calculations; it is not a statutory USD 0 threshold.
As checked on 2026-07-11, covered postal shipments remain under the interim process established by Executive Order 14388. The new postal informal-entry process in the parallel postal interim final rule begins on 2026-07-24.
Exact HTS classification (the new postal entry process requires a 10-digit HTS code from 2026-07-24); Country of origin; Postal or non-postal transport mode and entry date; Applicable trade measures and entry or carrier fees.
The base HTS rate can be only one part of the charge. Origin-specific trade measures, entry fees, transport rules, and carrier charges can materially change the final amount.

No for covered merchandise that previously relied on 19 U.S.C. 1321(a)(2)(C). Being under USD 800 no longer provides duty-free treatment across origins and postal/non-postal modes. The separate bona fide gift provision in paragraph (A) and traveler/personal-use provision in paragraph (B) are outside this calculator.
A reliable current total needs the exact HTS classification, country of origin, postal or non-postal transport mode, applicable trade measures, and entry or carrier fees. A broad product bucket cannot safely determine those charges.
As checked on 2026-07-11, covered postal shipments remain under the interim process established by Executive Order 14388. The new postal informal-entry process in the parallel postal interim final rule begins on 2026-07-24.
Confirm the product's HTS code and origin, identify how it will enter the United States, then check current CBP and HTS treatment or ask a qualified customs broker or carrier.
U.S. numeric estimates are paused because duty-free de minimis treatment under 19 U.S.C. 1321(a)(2)(C) is suspended for covered merchandise. Exact charges and entry procedures depend on the HTS classification, country of origin, postal or non-postal mode, entry date, current trade measures, entry fees, and carrier process. Confirm the shipment with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the current HTS, or a qualified broker before committing money.
