How much import duty will you pay on a Temu order?

Temu ships direct from Chinese sellers, so most parcels now clear customs as ordinary imports rather than duty-free packets. rates updated 30 Aug 2026

What usually ships from Temu

Small household goods, kitchenware, tools and accessories — often in the $10–80 range.

Worth knowing

Temu often shows an estimated import charge at checkout; it is collected by the platform, not the carrier.
If duty is charged separately on delivery, the carrier usually adds its own clearance fee on top.
Splitting one order into several parcels no longer avoids duty in the US — the de minimis exemption was suspended in 2025.

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.
