Where the numbers come from

We use primary sources: U.S. Census Bureau trade statistics, the Harmonized Tariff Schedule and published Federal Register actions. The code that adds them up lives in the same repository as this site. We publish the tables we used, not a summary, and we say where the data stops.

Census calculated-duty figures may differ from what importers actually paid, and they don't predict the duty on a future shipment. They are not a classification opinion.
