Tariffs & customs · TariffEasy
Every product crossing a border needs a tariff code, and that code decides the duty. 1ecomm connects to TariffEasy, our customs platform, through an app you install on your store: it classifies each new product and keeps an estimated US duty rate beside it.
How it switches on: Install the HTS Duty Calculator from your store’s App Marketplace. It classifies products as you create them and writes what it finds onto the product. It does not add duties to checkout, and it does not file anything with customs.
Why it matters
What merchants tell us goes wrong, and what the platform does about each one.
“I guessed a tariff code from a web search and hoped it was right.”
The app asks TariffEasy for the closest matching HTS codes for the product you just created, and stores the best match on the product instead of leaving the field blank.
“I only learned the duty after the shipment was already on its way.”
Alongside the code, the app stores an estimated US import duty as a share of the product’s price, so the number is on the product while you are setting margins.
“Every classification tool wanted its own spreadsheet of my catalog.”
The app runs inside your store, reads the product you just created, and writes back to that product. There is nothing to export and nothing to re-import.
“Customs paperwork lives somewhere my store knows nothing about.”
TariffEasy is a customs platform in its own right — a broker marketplace, a licensed-broker workbench and landed-cost quoting — and your store connects to it rather than duplicating it.
How it works
The HTS Duty Calculator is a first-party app in the App Marketplace. Installing it grants it two things only: reading your products, and writing the two fields it fills in.
Creating a product runs the app in the background. Your product save never waits for it, and a slow or failed classification never blocks the save.
TariffEasy returns the closest HTS matches for the product’s title and brand. The app stores the best full 10-digit code, then asks the calculator for the duty on that code and stores the rate.
The app’s own screen lists your products with their suggested codes, and you save the ones you agree with. A suggestion is a starting point, not a filing.
Get started
The exact screens, in order. Nothing here needs a developer.
Go to Store Settings → Apps & Sales Channels → App Marketplace and install HTS Duty Calculator.
Create a product as usual under Products → Add. Give it a clear title and brand — that is what the classifier reads.
Open HTS Classifier under Apps and review the code and duty rate against your own knowledge of the goods.
For landed-cost quotes, a licensed broker, or filing, use your TariffEasy account at tariffeasy.com. Your store is the catalog side of that work.
What's included
Automatic classification when a product is created, from the product’s own title and brand.
The landed duty for that code as a share of the declared value, stored on the product.
See the suggested code for your products and save the ones you accept.
The app can show the stored code and estimate on a product page.
The app reads products and writes its own two fields, and may only talk to tariffeasy.com.
Classification and duty come from TariffEasy’s own HTS data and calculator, not from a table inside your store.
