class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">US customs charges duty in layers. For toys, only one layer is switched on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Layer one is the base rate.<\/strong>&nbsp;The US tariff schedule lists 9503.00.00 as Free. Not 3%. Not 7.5%. Free. The 70% figure you may see is the Column 2 rate. That only applies to Cuba, North Korea, Belarus and Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Layer two is the 2019 Section 301 action.<\/strong>&nbsp;Toys were placed on List 4B on 20 August 2019. That list was set to begin on 15 December 2019. It never did. USTR cancelled it on 18 December 2019, before one container was ever charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Layer three is the new forced-labour tariff.<\/strong>&nbsp;USTR published it on 23 July 2026. It took effect at 00:01 on 24 July 2026. Chinese-origin goods pay 12.5% under Chapter 99 line 9903.05.31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Add the three layers. 0 + 0 + 12.5 =&nbsp;<strong>12.5%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You do not have to trust a blog for this. A federal court filing says it in plain words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 3BTech v. United States, the complaint records that subheading 9503.00.0090 is classified on List 4B. It then adds that the line was &#8220;not subject to additional China Section 301 duties at the time of entry.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Duty layer<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Status for Chinese toys<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Rate<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">HTS 9503.00.00, Column 1 General<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">In force<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Free<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Section 301, List 4B (2019)<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Cancelled 18 Dec 2019, never collected<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">IEEPA reciprocal and fentanyl duties<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Ended 24 Feb 2026 after the Supreme Court ruling<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">\u2014<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Section 122 temporary 10%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Expired 24 Jul 2026<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">\u2014<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Section 301 forced-labour tariff (9903.05.31)<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">In force since 24 Jul 2026<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>12.5%<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Total on a typical Chinese toy<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>12.5%<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_every_calculator_says_20\"><\/span>Why every calculator says 20%<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They group all of Chapter 95 together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chapter 95 holds toys, games, festive goods and sports gear. Only a few lines from that chapter reached List 4A, the 7.5% list. Those lines are 9504.20, 9504.30, 9504.90.90 and glass Christmas ornaments at 9505.10.10. Sports equipment sits there too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9503.00.00 is not on that list. That is the whole story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The error spreads because a calculator needs one answer per keyword. &#8220;Toy&#8221; points to Chapter 95. Chapter 95 points to List 4A. So the tool prints 7.5% on top of 12.5%. Nobody opens the ten-digit line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Search the same question today and you get four answers from four sites: 12.5%, 17.5%, 20%, and one that says 37.5%.&nbsp;<strong>Only one survives a look at the tariff schedule.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is a real trap buried in this. CBP rulings sometimes pair a 9503 toy with a List 3 or List 4A number. Nearly always, that number attaches to a non-toy part of the set. A tin carry case gets classified on its own. The toy inside stays at 12.5%. Classify every part, then check every line. Before you accept a quote, see&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/%d0%ba%d0%b0%d0%ba-%d0%bf%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%b5%d1%80%d0%b8%d1%82%d1%8c-%d1%81%d0%bf%d0%b8%d1%81%d0%be%d0%ba-%d1%86%d0%b5%d0%bd-%d0%bd%d0%b0-%d0%b8%d0%b3%d1%80%d1%83%d1%88%d0%ba%d0%b8\/\">what to check on a toy quotation list<\/a>. A price that assumes the wrong code is not a price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_if_you_import_toys_from_China_to_the_USA_with_the_wrong_code\"><\/span>What if you import toys from China to the USA with the wrong code?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then the gap is no longer 7.5 points. It can be 36.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tariff follows the product, not the shelf it sits on. A ride-on bike and a plush bear both look like toys to a buyer. To CBP they are two different products with two different bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">What buyers call it<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Real HTS line<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">How the duty stacks<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Total<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Dolls, plush, building sets, puzzles, RC cars<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9503.00.00<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>12.5%<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Video game consoles, handhelds, controllers<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9504.50.00<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">12.5%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Playing cards, board games<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9504.40.00<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">12.5%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Arcade and other game machines<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9504.30 \/ 9504.90.90<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free + 7.5% + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">20%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Glass Christmas ornaments<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9505.10.10<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free + 7.5% + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">20%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Children&#8217;s bicycle<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>8712.00<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">11% + 25% + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>48.5%<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Camera drone sold as a toy<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>8806.24<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free + 25% + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>37.5%<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Fitness gear listed as a toy<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9506.91<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">4.6% + 7.5% + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">24.6%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Dress-up costume<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Ch. 61 or 62<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Garment base rate + 12.5%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Well above 12.5%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Kids&#8217; backpack<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">4202<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Not a toy<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Separate line<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two of those rows hurt.

Three items decide whether your container clears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>One: the CPC must be in your name.<\/strong>&nbsp;Under section 14 of the Consumer Product Safety Act, the importer issues the certificate. Your factory&#8217;s test report supports it. It does not replace it. If the CPC names the factory, you have no certificate. A supplier&#8217;s old report also has to match your exact product and still be current. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/%d1%81%d0%b5%d1%80%d1%82%d0%b8%d1%84%d0%b8%d0%ba%d0%b0%d1%82-%d0%ba%d0%b0%d1%87%d0%b5%d1%81%d1%82%d0%b2%d0%b0-%d0%b4%d0%b5%d1%82%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b8%d1%85-%d1%82%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%b0%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b2-amaz\/\">CPC rules for Amazon sellers<\/a>&nbsp;cover what each field must say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Two: the certificate must be filed electronically.<\/strong>&nbsp;CPSC&#8217;s eFiling rule sits at 16 CFR 1110 and took effect on&nbsp;<strong>8 July 2026<\/strong>. From that date, certificate data goes into CBP&#8217;s ACE system at entry. Products entering from a foreign trade zone get until 8 January 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This catches small sellers hardest. CPSC states that any product requiring certification must have an eFiled certificate,&nbsp;<strong>whatever the shipment value<\/strong>. There is no Section 321 or de minimis exemption. Cheap air parcels and sample boxes are not a loophole. If you also sell into Europe, the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/toys-certification\/\">CE EN71 side<\/a>&nbsp;is a separate test file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One caution: eFiling is not approval. It moves data. CPSC can still stop the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Three: the test standard is now F963-23.<\/strong>&nbsp;16 CFR 1250 makes ASTM F963-23 mandatory, effective 20 April 2024. A newer rule added water bead requirements at 16 CFR 1250.4, effective&nbsp;<strong>12 March 2026<\/strong>. If your range includes water beads, slime, magnets, long cords or projectiles, each has its own test line. Here are&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/10-%d0%bb%d1%83%d1%87%d1%88%d0%b8%d1%85-%d0%b8%d0%b3%d1%80%d1%83%d1%88%d0%b5%d0%ba-%d0%b8%d1%81%d0%bf%d1%8b%d1%82%d0%b0%d1%82%d0%b5%d0%bb%d1%8c%d0%bd%d0%b0%d1%8f-%d0%bb%d0%b0%d0%b1%d0%be%d1%80%d0%b0\/\">labs that issue CE and ASTM toy reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Battery and RC toys carry extra work. Radio-controlled units need FCC equipment authorisation. Battery compartments must meet the F963 battery rules. Button cells pull in Reese&#8217;s Law, though toys that meet F963 and are meant for children under 14 get relief on the product standard. Spare button cells packed in the box may still need their own warnings. This is also why a forwarder will ask for an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/ship-battery-operated-toy-need-msds\/\">MSDS on a battery toy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_does_it_take_to_import_toys_from_China_to_the_USA\"><\/span>How long does it take to import toys from China to the USA?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Longer than the sailing time, and shorter than most new buyers fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sea transit to Los Angeles or Long Beach runs about 12 to 18 days. Door to door, add export clearance, customs release and trucking: figure&nbsp;<strong>18 to 25 days<\/strong>. East Coast ports, via Panama, run 30 to 40 days. Express services such as Matson CLX cut the ocean leg to 10 to 12 days. Air freight is 2 to 3 days in the air, 5 to 8 days door to door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then stack the rest of the chain on top. Production time depends on the factory you pick, so&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/%d0%ba%d0%b0%d0%ba-%d0%bd%d0%b0%d0%b9%d1%82%d0%b8-%d0%bb%d1%83%d1%87%d1%88%d0%b8%d1%85-%d0%bf%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b8%d0%b7%d0%b2%d0%be%d0%b4%d0%b8%d1%82%d0%b5%d0%bb%d0%b5%d0%b9-%d0%b8%d0%b3%d1%80%d1%83\/\">choosing the manufacturer<\/a>&nbsp;starts the clock before freight does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Stage<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Typical time<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Factory production, stock designs<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">15\u201330 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Factory production, custom tooling<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">30\u201360 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Testing and CPC issue<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">7\u201315 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Booking and vessel cut-off<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">3\u20137 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Ocean transit, US West Coast<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">12\u201318 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Customs release and drayage<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">3\u20137 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Order to warehouse, stocked item<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>roughly 55\u201380 days<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Peak season runs August to December. Add 3 to 7 days for congestion, and another 3 to 7 if Los Angeles and Long Beach are backed up. If you need goods on a shelf for a dated promotion, work backwards from the shelf date, not forwards from the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_number_that_may_disappear_before_you_book\"><\/span>The number that may disappear before you book<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is the part that makes this a moving target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On&nbsp;<strong>26 September 2026<\/strong>, the White House named toys among the non-sensitive goods eligible for preferential treatment under the new US\u2013China Board of Trade framework. Toys are the single largest category on the relief list, at roughly&nbsp;<strong>$9.8 billion of $30 billion<\/strong>&nbsp;in covered imports. Chinese officials have said more than 90% of covered products could return to MFN rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Final rates are not confirmed. As of late October 2026, the 12.5% still applies at the border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So how do you plan?&nbsp;<strong>Model 12.5% as the cost you will pay, and treat 0% as upside.<\/strong>&nbsp;Do not sign a large seasonal PO on the assumption that relief lands before your vessel sails. If it does land, the saving is a bonus. If it slips, you are still solvent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same logic runs the other way. This tariff has moved four times in eighteen months. It went from 145% in spring 2025, to a 10% Section 122 surcharge, to 12.5% in July 2026, with a possible cut now on the table.&nbsp;<strong>Anyone who quotes you a fixed duty rate for next year is guessing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_the_125_still_leaves_China_as_the_default\"><\/span>Why the 12.5% still leaves China as the default<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price is only one reason buyers stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US imported about&nbsp;<strong>$13.9 billion<\/strong>&nbsp;of toys in 2025. China supplied&nbsp;<strong>65.9%<\/strong>&nbsp;of that value, at roughly $9.2 billion. Vietnam came second at 13.3%, Mexico third at 9.0%. Measured by toys sold rather than imported, The Toy Association puts China at about&nbsp;<strong>76%<\/strong>, down from roughly 87% in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is a slow drift, not an exit. Tooling, moulds and the trained workforce did not move. Sourcing still concentrates in a handful of cities.

Games and puzzles led at $4.9 billion, up 37%. Building sets hit $4.3 billion, up 15%. Those three fast categories drove 92% of all growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The soft spots matter just as much. Dolls fell 7%. Plush fell 8%. Outdoor and sports toys fell 6%.

A marketplace listing and a factory quote are two different products, and the gap is not only price.

Duty is a fixed 12.5% today. Freight, fees and trucking move around more than the tariff does. Small air parcels run far higher per unit. These are rough ranges, not quotes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_need_an_agent_to_import_toys_from_China_to_the_USA\"><\/span>Do I need an agent to import toys from China to the USA?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not legally. You can buy direct and hire a broker for the entry. An agent earns its fee when you are comparing several factories, checking test reports, or consolidating goods from more than one supplier into one container. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/%d0%b0%d0%b3%d0%b5%d0%bd%d1%82-%d0%bf%d0%be-%d0%b7%d0%b0%d0%ba%d1%83%d0%bf%d0%ba%d0%b0%d0%bc-%d0%b2-%d0%ba%d0%b8%d1%82%d0%b0%d0%b5\/\">full case for a China sourcing agent<\/a>&nbsp;sets out where the fee pays back and where it does not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_toy_factories_take_payment\"><\/span>How do toy factories take payment?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most ask for a deposit with the order and the balance before shipping. Thirty percent up front is common on a first order, then terms loosen as you build history. Never pay a factory account that does not match the company name on the proforma invoice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_need_a_US_company_to_import_toys_from_China_to_the_USA\"><\/span>Do I need a US company to import toys from China to the USA?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, effectively. You need an importer of record with a US tax number, registered with CBP on Form 5106. Most overseas sellers use a resident company, a licensed broker, or a foreign trade zone entity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_minimum_order_to_import_toys_from_China_to_the_USA\"><\/span>What is the minimum order to import toys from China to the USA?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It depends on the factory, not the border. Stock designs often start at 500 to 1,000 pieces. Custom tooling usually pushes past 1,000 to 3,000. Below 500, air or LCL makes more sense than a container. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/%d0%ba%d0%b0%d0%ba-%d0%ba%d1%83%d0%bf%d0%b8%d1%82%d1%8c-%d0%b8%d0%b3%d1%80%d1%83%d1%88%d0%ba%d0%b8-%d0%b8%d0%b7-%d0%ba%d0%b8%d1%82%d0%b0%d1%8f\/\">six-step buying route<\/a>&nbsp;explains why tooling moves the number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_the_factory_handle_duty_and_delivery\"><\/span>Can the factory handle duty and delivery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A DDP quote puts the duty in the supplier&#8217;s price. It feels simple. The risk is that you never see the entry paperwork, so you cannot prove classification or origin if CBP asks later. For repeat business, keep yourself as importer of record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_pay_duty_on_freight\"><\/span>Do I pay duty on freight?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. US duty is assessed on the price paid for the goods. Ocean freight and insurance normally sit outside that base. MPF and HMF are also calculated on goods value, not on duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_if_my_shipment_fails_inspection\"><\/span>What happens if my shipment fails inspection?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It gets held, not automatically rejected. You can rework, re-test or export it. The cost is time and storage. This is why pre-shipment inspection beats a cheaper FOB price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_the_125_here_to_stay\"><\/span>Is the 12.5% here to stay?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No one can say. It is in force today. Toys sit on the Board of Trade relief list as of 26 September 2026, with final rates unconfirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_with_the_right_number\"><\/span>Start with the right number<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most importers lose money on toys in one of two places. They classify the product wrong, or they budget a duty rate they read on a calculator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both are fixable before you place a PO. Send us your product list and target price. We will check the ten-digit line for each item, flag anything sitting outside 9503, and price the landed cost on the base that CBP actually uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are still choosing where to buy, start with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tonysourcing.com\/ru\/%d0%b8%d0%bc%d0%bf%d0%be%d1%80%d1%82%d0%b8%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%b0%d1%82%d1%8c-%d0%b8%d0%b3%d1%80%d1%83%d1%88%d0%ba%d0%b8-%d0%b8%d0%b7-%d0%ba%d0%b8%d1%82%d0%b0%d1%8f\/\">how to import toys from China<\/a>&nbsp;for the four-stage process.
