What usually ships from AliExpress

Electronics, phone accessories, tools and hobby goods, usually $5–200.

Worth knowing

Electronics and batteries are the categories most often hit by additional tariff measures.
Sellers sometimes declare a lower value; the declared value is what customs assesses, but under-declaring is the importer's legal risk.
Lithium batteries and power banks have shipping restrictions on top of any duty.

Why the amount changes so much

Three things drive the number: the tariff classification of the goods, the country they were made in, and where they clear customs. Two parcels of the same value can differ by tens of percent because one is classified as footwear and the other as a toy — which is why the calculator asks for the product rather than just the price.
