US customs value is the price paid for the goods: international freight and insurance stay out of it where they are separately identified on the invoice. Freight still belongs in your landed cost per unit — it is simply not dutiable. Every layer is kept as its own line because that is how your entry summary will show it.

What does not apply, and why
Section 301 — China List 4B
The heading is printed with the compiler's note "provision suspended". It is listed for this code in U.S. note 20(u) but is not collected. Source
IEEPA (fentanyl and reciprocal)
CBP stopped collecting IEEPA duties on goods entered from 12:00 a.m. ET on 24 February 2026 (CSMS #67834313). Revision 19 still prints heading 9903.01.24 at +10% with no termination note. Duties paid before then are being refunded through CAPE. Source
If you paid IEEPA duty on earlier entries, the ES-003 report shows which entries carried it. CBP is refunding it through a CAPE declaration that you or your broker file in ACE — CBP’s refund page.
Section 122 surcharge
U.S. note 2(aa) compiler's note: headings 9903.03.01–9903.03.11 expired at the close of 23 July 2026 (91 Fed. Reg. 9339). Source
Antidumping and countervailing duty
AD/CVD orders are scoped to particular products and, often, particular exporters. They are not part of the Chapter 99 stack above. Your broker checks them against the entry.

For United States shipments: Supercargo is not a licensed customs broker and does not conduct customs business as defined in 19 CFR 111.1. Figures shown for prospective shipments are management estimates on a commodity code you supply.
