How much tariff if buying $10k from Japan?


Dear all,

This is November 2025, I’m about to execute a $10k brand new item from Japan and was curious how much everyone had paid from what amount and what month, year. Thanks

is this some kind of a brag post about how I’m spending $10,000? Because tariffs have been beaten like a dead horse 🐴 around here. 

This guy is asking about a specific amount from a specific country; doesn't look to me like he's trying to start an argument about tariffs.

Tariffs are assessed based on where the product is manufactured and materials are sourced from, not necessarily the same as the country it's shipping from.

I recently bought a power supply from PD Creative in Poland for approximately $232.  The tariff amount on products from the EU is 15%, which would be $35 rounded off.  I received an email from Fedex for $60.  There was no break down on of the charges on the email, although it is apparently $25 for something.  I called the Fedex help line and asked them to explain the charge; they said they could not explain until a paper invoice was created, which I haven't received.

I had a nice discussion with Fedex employees, who all speak English as a second language which makes the conversation a bit difficult.  They couldn't understand my aggravation in being sent a bill which they couldn't explain.  In any event I am still waiting for an explanation.  Bottom line, I am paying an effective 26% to import the product, not counting having to deal with customs via Fedex.
