FTA eligibility checker

Which trade agreement gives you a lower duty into your destination market? Enter origin, destination, and HS code to see the best preferential rate, the MFN baseline, and your savings per shipment.

How this works

We pull every duty rate row in our dataset for the destination country and HS code. The row with no origin specifiedis the MFN (Most-Favoured-Nation) baseline that applies to any importer. Rows where the origin matches yours and there's a preferential rate are FTA agreements you qualify for. We pick the lowest preferential rate as your best option.

Multiple FTAs covering the same pair:common scenario. For example, Malaysia → Japan is covered by both RCEP and the bilateral Malaysia-Japan EPA (MJEPA). You can usually elect whichever gives you the lowest rate, provided you can satisfy that agreement's Rules of Origin (typically a regional value content threshold or tariff-shift rule).

What you need to claim a preferential rate:a Certificate of Origin from your origin country, documenting that your product meets the agreement's Rules of Origin. Issued by exporter self-certification (under some agreements like CPTPP) or by an authorised chamber of commerce.

Limits:the checker covers duty rates. It doesn't calculate full landed cost (which adds destination VAT/GST, freight, broker fees). For full landed cost, use the Duty Calculator.
