What goes on a tariff information label

A tariff information label puts the details customs uses to set duties on the outside of a parcel: what is inside, its HS or HTS tariff code, where it was made, its value and weight, and whether duties are paid by the sender or the recipient. Since the US ended duty free de minimis entry for low value parcels in 2025, these details decide what every cross border parcel costs.

Description of contentsPlain words such as "women's cotton T shirt", not "clothing"
HS or HTS codeSets the duty rate
Country of originWhere the goods were made, not shipped from; decides tariffs
Quantity, value and currencyDuty is a percentage of the value

How to use it

  1. Enter the sender and recipient.
  2. Add a line per product with its HS code and origin; find codes with the AI HS code finder.
  3. Print, sign and attach it to the parcel next to the shipping label.

Carriers and postal services also have their own customs forms (CN22, CN23) and may need a commercial invoice for higher values; this label carries the same data in a clear layout.

Frequently asked questions

What is a tariff code on a shipping label?

The HS or HTS code of the product. The first 6 digits are shared worldwide; countries add more digits for their own tariff.

Is country of origin where I ship from?

No. It is where the product was made or last substantially changed.

Who pays the tariff on a parcel?

The recipient under DAP (duties unpaid) or the sender under DDP (duties paid). Tick the option on the label.

Is it free?

Yes. No sign up and no watermark. Download a PDF or Word file, or print it, as often as you need.

Is my information saved?

Only in your own browser, so you can come back to the draft. Nothing is uploaded to our servers.
