About

tariff-calculator-amazon is a Nexscope AI agent skill (v1.0.0) that estimates import duties, Section 301 tariffs, VAT/GST, and full landed costs for cross-border Amazon FBA SKUs using offline Python scripts with no API keys. It bundles calculator.py and hs_lookup.py to map HS codes to duty rates across nine preset trade routes—China to US, China to EU, US to EU, and six more—plus custom origin/destination pairs with USMCA, EVFTA, and RCEP preferential rates. Run python3 scripts/calculator.py with JSON specifying hs_code, origin_country, destination_country, fob_value, quantity, and freight_cost to get per-unit landed cost breakdowns, including Section 301 additions from 7.5% to 25% on China-to-US goods. hs_lookup.py suggests HS codes from plain product descriptions like wireless earbuds. Reach for tariff-calculator-amazon when pricing international inventory, comparing sourcing countries, or validating Amazon margin math before listing or procurement commits.
