Estimates only — not legal or customs advice.

This estimate models the Section 232 measure as a flat 15%. The measure actually applies to the combined duty rate rather than as a separate line — a detail Portigo does not yet compute exactly — so the total shown may be slightly overstated, typically by 0–3%.

The Section 232 charge shown is conditional — it can vary with whether the article is a vehicle part, its USMCA status, and country-specific trade programs. Confirm your classification with a licensed customs broker before relying on this figure.
