World Bank World Development Indicators
These are annual country-level averages. Product-specific import duties still require HS/HTS lookup, origin review, Chapter 99, AD/CVD, quota, and broker confirmation.
Quick answer
Country averages are directional. For shipment decisions, verify the HS/HTS product row first.

WTO HS6 product rows
Pending sync
Recent HS6 product-level samples for this country are not synced yet.
Sources: World Bank WDI; product-level rows, when available, use WTO TTD / IDB.
TariffsChart keeps the WTO / World Bank country data below and is adding source-verified US policy layers first for high-intent origin countries.
Fact check
Tariff research should not rely on one average number. These sources separate HTS base rates, Section 301 actions, CBP filing guidance, formal notices, and country-level macro data.
Use it to verify HTS classification, product descriptions, general Column 1 duty rates, special rates, and Chapter 99 notes.
Use it to decide whether China-origin goods need a List 1/2/3/4, four-year-review, or exclusion-extension check.
CBP FAQ helps review Hong Kong/Macau, drawback, Chapter 98, FTZ, sets, and ruling questions.
Use it to confirm proclamations, notices, effective dates, comment dockets, and formal legal text.
World Bank indicators summarize applied/MFN averages; WTO TTD / IDB adds more product-level tariff-line context.
The same country name can mean an import schedule, US policy on that origin, or a landed-cost estimate. Pick the right path so the page answers the right question.

Data scope note
These country-level rates come from annual macro indicators. They answer searches such as “tariff rates by country” and “historical tariff rates,” but they usually lag 2025/2026 policy notices and do not replace product-specific HS/HTS duty review.
For a shipment decision, start with HS/HTS lookup, then review Chapter 99, Section 301, Section 232, AD/CVD, quotas, and broker guidance.
