Landed Cost Calculator

Landed cost is what a unit really costs by the time it is on your shelf: supplier price plus freight, duty and handling. Price from the supplier invoice alone and every margin you calculate afterwards inherits the error.

How many sellable units arrive.
£
The invoice price, converted to pounds.
£
To the UK border, for the whole shipment. Part of the customs value.
%
Depends on commodity code and origin: 0% to 12%+ is common. Check the UK Integrated Online Tariff.
£
Brokerage, port and courier fees. A real cost, but no duty is charged on it.
Registered businesses reclaim import VAT, so it is not a landed cost. Unregistered ones pay it for real.
Landed cost per unit

Enter your shipment to see the true cost of one unit.

Import VAT

Customs value is goods plus freight and insurance; duty is charged on that, and import VAT on the value plus the duty. Use the per-unit figure, not the supplier price, in the COGS, profit margin and break-even ROAS calculators.

The workbook version handles the real-world case: one shipment carrying several products. Freight and clearance are allocated across SKUs by value share, each product carries its own duty rate, and every SKU comes out with its own landed cost per unit.
