Do international orders need to pay customs duties? How is the amount of customs duties calculated?

Yes. According to the customs policies of the destination country/region, international parcels may incur import duties, which shall be borne by the recipient (we do not bear the duty costs). Tariff calculation rule: Take the "customs value" determined by the local customs (usually the actual payment amount of the product plus the freight) as the base, and multiply it by the tariff rate of the corresponding category. For example:

In the EU region, the tariff rates for daily necessities and bags are approximately 5% to 10%, and for kitchen silicone products, it is about 8%. For specific details, please refer to the EU TARIC coding system.

In the United States, self-use parcels will be subject to tariffs ranging from 2.5% to 15% depending on their category.

Australia: All imported goods are subject to a 10% GST (Goods and Services Tax), and the tariff rate ranges from 0% to 5% depending on the category.

It is recommended to check the official website of the destination customs or consult the local customs clearance agent before placing an order to avoid the package being detained due to tariff issues.
