About this calculator
The Total Import Cost Calculator helps estimate the total cost of an import, including FOB (Free On Board), shipping, insurance, and duties. It's essential for importers who need accurate budgeting, factoring in all expenses involved in purchasing goods from another country.
The calculation is based on CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight), which adds FOB (product price on board), maritime freight, transportation insurance, and customs duties. The final result shows the total cost in Brazilian reais, adjusted for the import date.
Use this tool when planning international purchases to assess total costs before finalizing deals. Exchange rate fluctuations or additional fees (e.g., storage charges) may require manual adjustments to the result.
Note that duties depend on the product classification and current legislation. It's recommended to consult a customs broker for official validation of the calculations.
