Tariff Calculator: India → U.S. (2026)
India-to-U.S. duty in 2026 = the MFN base rate (by 8-digit HTS code) + the global 301 India tier of 10% (since 2026-07-24, FR 2026-15181; India stacks additively with no MFN+301 combined cap); where a Section 232 sector is hit (steel/aluminium/copper 50%, autos 25%, pharma general tier 20%, etc.) the sector rate displaces the 301 layer — India's flagship pharma exports sit in the 20% pharma tier. Sea freight adds HMF 0.125%; formal entries add MPF ($34.58–$670.86 per entry, FY2027). The calculator below ships prefilled with India as origin — enter your HTS code and value for the full stack.
What changed on this lane in 2026: the IEEPA tariffs ended and moved into refund processing, the global 301 India tier of 10% took effect, and the pharma 232 general tier went live — India is the largest source of U.S. generic drugs, so that sector layer is this lane's biggest variable. Your entry cost is decided by the layers below; there is no preferential U.S.–India rate layer (no bilateral FTA) in force.

What changed on this lane in 2026
- 2026-02-24IEEPA fentanyl tariff struck down (a 10% duty on all origins from 2025-02-04) — duties paid in the window are refundable via CBP CAPE
- 2026-07-24Global 301 effective: India at a flat 10% tier (FR 2026-15181 §1(a)(i)), stacked on the same value as MFN with no combined cap; Section 232-covered and Annex I/II-exempt goods skip this layer
- 2026-09-29Pharma Section 232 general tier of 20% takes effect — Indian pharmaceuticals hit by 232 pay the sector rate, displacing the global 301 layer
Also: the global 301 program remains in litigation at the Court of International Trade (schedule set); CBP enforcement prevails. Section 232 sector rates are origin-agnostic and displace the global 301 layer when hit: steel/aluminium/copper 50%, autos & parts 25%, furniture 25%, semiconductors 25%, pharma general tier 20%, softwood timber 10%.
Frequently asked questions
What duties do I pay importing from India into the U.S. in 2026?
It stacks: the MFN base rate (by 8-digit HTS code) + the global 301 India tier of 10%, added to MFN with no combined cap. Worked examples: cotton T-shirt 6109.10 (MFN 16.5%) = 16.5% + 10% = 26.5% combined; laptop 8471.30 (MFN Free) = 0% + 10% = 10% combined. Pharma and other 232 sector goods pay the sector rate instead of the 301 layer; sea freight adds HMF 0.125%, formal entries add MPF 0.3464% (FY2027, min $34.58 / max $670.86 per entry). There is no preferential U.S.–India rate layer. Price your code in the prefilled calculator above.

How are Indian pharmaceuticals and textiles tariffed?
Pharmaceuticals hit the Section 232 pharma layer (general tier 20%, since 2026-09-29) and pay the sector rate instead of the global 301 tier — Indian drugs pay 20%, not the 10% tier; the 232 sector scope follows the official HTS lists (the engine computes on chapter-level indicative ranges and flags them for verification). Textiles sit outside the 232/301 sector lists and pay MFN + 10% stacked (most apparel carries MFN around 16.5%, so around 26.5% combined). Sector hits are decided by the 8-digit HTS code — the calculator flags them layer by layer with source links.
Can I get a refund of the IEEPA tariff I paid?
Yes. The IEEPA fentanyl tariff ran at 10% on all origins (India included) from 2025-02-04 to 2026-02-24, when the Supreme Court struck it down; duties paid in the window are claimable through CBP's CAPE process (file as the importer of record, or route through your carrier/broker).

What should be on the commercial invoice for India-to-U.S. shipments?
Beyond the standard ten fields, cover this lane's specifics: the 10-digit HTS code, country of origin (India — by the last substantial transformation), value currency (USD, or INR/EUR as used) and Incoterms. The $800 de minimis has been suspended since 2025-08-29, so parcels pay the same stack. Generate a compliant invoice online.
