Frequenlty asked questions
What is a Tariff Simulator and how does it benefit my business?
A Tariff Simulator is an interactive tool that allows you to estimate import/export duties, taxes, and fees before you ship. By simulating different trade scenarios, your business can accurately plan budgets, avoid unexpected costs at the border, and optimize your global sourcing strategy.
Do I need an HTS code to use the simulator?
Yes, the tool provides the most precise results when you input specific Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes. The simulator uses these codes along with the country of origin and destination to calculate applicable duty rates and identify potential preferential treatments under Free Trade Agreements.
How does the simulator help with tariff mitigation?
The simulator allows you to compare costs across different “what-if” scenarios. For example, you can see how changing a product’s country of origin might lower your duty exposure or if certain tariff engineering strategies could apply to your specific goods.
Is the data provided by the simulator real-time?
While the simulator provides estimates based on current global trade regulations, it is designed to work in tandem with our Tariff Tracker, which monitors changes in duties and trade laws in real time. This ensures that your simulations are based on the most up-to-date information available in the Captain platform.
Can I use the Tariff Simulator if I don’t book my freight with CargoTrans?
Yes. As part of our Captain Control Tower philosophy, we believe in providing visibility and expert tools to shippers regardless of who moves their cargo. You can use our digital tools to manage your compliance and trade strategy as a standalone solution.
