U.S. import duty on smartphones (HTS 8517.13.00), by country of origin

HTS 8517.13.00: Smartphones (tariff text: "Smartphones"). The base rate is Free; the Chapter 99 measures in force bring the total to between 0% (Bangladesh) and 50% (Canada; 50% to 50% depending on the answers) across the 20 largest sources of U.S. imports.

An estimate for a person to review, not a customs ruling. Built from 2026 HTS Revision 22 and the USITC Chapter 99 notes (rules version ef2237d8b7cd0cec), recalculated on every page view. Antidumping and countervailing duties, quotas and fees are not included. Check your classification: a different 8-digit line can carry a different stack.

Questions that change the answer:

  • Is the article a civil aircraft, or an engine, part, component, subassembly or ground flight simulator for civil aircraft, that meets HTS general note 6? Assumed no; if yes, the total is 0%.
  • Is the product one of the Canadian products listed in the Annex to Proclamation 11063 of September 8, 2026 (91 FR 58325)? Products listed there are excluded from importation into the United States when imported on or after September 29, 2026. The annex is not part of chapter 99, so this tool cannot check it. Assumed no; if yes, the total is 50%.
