CUSTOMS ANSWER

Import duty is not every amount collected at import.

Ordinary customs duty, VAT or other import taxes, fees and trade measures can use different rules and calculation bases.

Direct answer

Duty usually follows tariff classification, origin and customs value. VAT or other import taxes follow destination rules; special duties and fees can apply separately. The estimator keeps these concepts visible instead of combining them into one unsupported percentage.

Boundary

The public reference is not the final payable amount or filing instruction. The actual declaration basis and lawful payment route require shipment-specific confirmation.
