## 9. Import Tariffs & Compliance (as of 2026-09 — verify per shipment)

Tariff and classification rules for toys/games have changed repeatedly in 2025-2026. Treat the figures below as planning ranges, not fixed law; we confirm the exact HS code and rate on every quote.

| Destination | Notes |
|---|---|
| United States | Section 301 additional duties apply to China-origin goods. Combined add-on has recently run roughly 12.5-20% (a separate "Section 122" surcharge applied Feb 2026 was later ruled unlawful and is no longer relied on). The $800 de minimis exemption for small parcels was suspended in 2025. Confirm current rate per shipment. |
| European Union | Games/toys are subject to CE/EN71 safety requirements and the GPSR (in force since 2024-12-13, requires an EU responsible person). Duty on HS 9504 is generally low; confirm exact classification. |
| United Kingdom / Canada / Australia | Rates vary by HS classification; we estimate landed cost per order. |

**Product safety:** Metal coins and acrylic tokens intended for games may fall under toy-safety rules (EU EN71-3 migration of elements, US ASTM F963 / CPSIA, California Prop 65 heavy-metal warnings). Our partner production facilities are certified to these standards; third-party test reports are available on request.
