What the calculator adds up.
Included lines are excluded from additional charges to reduce double counting. Amount mode uses your entered levy total. Rate mode calculates the entered assessment base × rate ÷ 100. You supply each assessment base: it may differ from the goods value and from the base used for another levy.
Contingency is calculated on goods, additional costs, duty and import tax. Import taxes that may later be recoverable can still affect cash requirements. The tool does not determine tax recoverability, classify goods, calculate mixed-tariff consignments or handle exemptions and special customs procedures.
Example figures are invented arithmetic inputs, not researched market prices or tax advice. The model is informed by official valuation and import guidance; a selected destination changes the reference links, not the rates.
