Unprompted feedback from real sellers

What sellers are saying.

After we shared this tool publicly, working sellers wrote back about the exact gap it's built to close. In their words.

Our estimated landed costs were consistently 8 to 12% lower than what we actually paid.
Seller, US
Calculator said around 15% duties, but customs classified it differently and hit me with 23%.
Seller, US ↔ NL
That gap between estimated and actual costs... your calculator sounds like a good tool for that.
Seller, US
Whoever solves predictability wins, not whoever is cheapest.

How this estimate works

01
Customs Duty
Estimated using average duty rates per product category. EU calculates duty on CIF value (product + shipping). EU de minimis: €150. US de minimis: $800.
02
VAT / Tax
EU VAT = % × (Product + Shipping + Duty + Handling Fee). Rates: DE 19%, FR 20%, NL 21%. For US-bound: no federal VAT, state sales tax applies separately and is not included.
03
Shipping
Estimated by weight and service level, Express (DHL/FedEx, 2-5 days), Standard (Priority Mail/DHL eCommerce, 6-10 days), or Economy (postal, 10-21 days). Rates based on real 2025-26 carrier pricing. For exact figures, enter your actual carrier rate, the tool will use it directly.
04
FX Buffer
A 2% buffer for currency conversion between USD and EUR. Actual FX fluctuation depends on timing, payment provider, and conversion method.
Estimate Only, Not Financial Advice, This calculator provides directional estimates based on average duty rates by product category, standard VAT rates, and estimated shipping costs. Actual landed costs may vary based on specific HS code classification, product composition, carrier rates, exchange rate fluctuations, applicable trade agreements, and regulatory requirements. For precise, product-level calculations, globecart.one's platform will use real-time data and automated HS classification. All amounts shown in USD. This tool does not constitute financial, tax, or legal advice.
