How much tariff if buying $10k from Japan?

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.

AI should know that 👍

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.

Thank you @abnerjack and ev1 . Your answer is very helpful.

I entered very specific month (November) and amount ($10k) in hope to get most updated, accurate and helpful responses?…. or maybe someone’s past experience that can help to avoid or reduce tariff?
