Unlike many other countries, imports from India are often subject to additional U.S. trade measures.
This makes accurate tariff calculation critical before shipping.
For active duty orders, consult the ITA AD/CVD database. Verify current rates and procedures at CBP.gov and check USTR’s India trade page for policy updates before finalizing India shipments.
Frequently asked questions
What costs does this calculator include?
The calculator covers the base MFN duty rate (HTS-based), Section 232 surcharges on steel and aluminum, and active AD/CVD rates where applicable. Customs value is calculated on a CIF basis. Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) and Harbor Maintenance Fee (HMF) are not included but apply at entry.
Is India subject to Section 301 tariffs?
No. Section 301 tariffs apply exclusively to goods of Chinese origin under the Trade Act of 1974. Indian goods are not subject to Section 301. Imports from India are assessed at MFN rates plus any applicable Section 232 surcharges or AD/CVD duties.
What replaced IEEPA tariffs on India imports?
The Supreme Court struck down IEEPA-based tariffs on Feb 20, 2026, in a 6-3 ruling. Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 now provides the authority for emergency global tariffs. CBP is currently collecting at 10% on India imports under Section 122. Importers should verify the active rate at CBP.gov before finalizing landed cost calculations.
Did India lose GSP benefits?
Yes. The United States revoked India’s Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) eligibility in June 2019, citing market access barriers. Indian goods now pay full MFN rates with no preferential duty treatment. There is no US-India free trade agreement.
What AD/CVD orders affect Indian imports?
Active orders on Indian goods include: cold-rolled steel, hot-rolled steel, aluminum foil, solar cells, shrimp, certain carbon steel products, and specific chemical compounds. Rates vary by product and supplier. Verify by HTS code in the ITA AD/CVD database before importing.
How do I find my HTS code for this calculator?
Your HTS code is the 10-digit number that determines your base duty rate and tariff eligibility for goods imported from India. Use the USITC HTS database to search by product description. The first 6 digits follow the international Harmonized System; digits 7-10 are US-specific. Enter the 10-digit code in Captain’s calculator to get MFN rates, Section 232 exposure, and active AD/CVD orders for India goods.
What is Section 122 and how does it affect this calculator?
Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 authorizes the President to impose an emergency global tariff of up to 15% on imports for up to 150 days. After the Supreme Court struck down IEEPA tariffs on Feb 20, 2026, Section 122 became the operative authority for the 10% global emergency rate. CBP is currently collecting at 10% on most India goods under Section 122. Captain includes this rate in all landed cost calculations for India imports.
