How do I calculate the landed cost for footwear imports from China?
Landed cost = FOB unit price + freight per pair + duty + VAT + any local handling. Work it per pair, not per order, so you can compare styles fairly. We quote factory-direct FOB so the base is transparent.
How to build it
- FOB per pair: from the product page at your MOQ tier.
- Freight per pair: total freight ÷ total pairs in the shipment.
- Duty + VAT: apply your country's rates to the declared value.
- Handling: port, clearing and inland transport.
Why per-pair matters
Shoes pack densely, so freight per pair is low and falls as you fill a container. Our tiered MOQ (10 / 50 / 100 pairs) lowers the FOB base as volume rises.
Next step
See pricing and MOQ, then ask us to quote FOB with a freight estimate.
