Export to the USA from France and EU: Understanding the New 15% Import Tax and How Cosmo Freight Can Help
Export to the USA from France: Understanding the New 15% Import Tax and How Cosmo Freight Can Help
French exporters face new U.S. import procedures and a 15% import tax. Here’s how to stay compliant, control costs, and ship smoothly with Cosmo Freight.
At Cosmo Freight, we specialize in USA export logistics and customs compliance, helping French exporters secure smooth and profitable access to the American market.
The New U.S. Import Procedure
Recent updates from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) require exporters to adapt to:
- Stricter documentation — invoices, HS codes, certificates of origin, and security filings must be 100% correct.
- Pre-arrival compliance — U.S. authorities increasingly demand complete, validated data before cargo arrival.
- Higher risk of delays — non-compliance can trigger customs inspections, storage charges, and delivery issues.
The 15% Import Tax in the USA
The new 15% import tax affects a wide range of imported goods. For French exporters, this means:
- Increased landed costs for U.S. buyers.
- Reduced margins if the tax is not integrated into pricing.
- Greater need for transparency with partners and distributors in the U.S.
Exporters who anticipate and manage this tax correctly maintain competitiveness in the American market.
