If you're asking what tariff rate the Philippines imposes on goods imported from the U.S., here’s what the current information shows:

🇵🇭 Philippines Tariffs on U.S. Imports

1. New U.S.–Philippines Trade Deal (as of July 22, 2025)

• Customs duties on U.S.–made goods entering the Philippines have been reduced to 0% under a newly signed bilateral agreement
  

• This makes most U.S. imports effectively duty‑free, meaning no import tariff applies for qualifying goods.

2. Still Pay Other Taxes and Fees

Even with 0% duty, imports are still subject to:

• 12% Value‑Added Tax (VAT) calculated on the full landed cost (CIF value: goods + shipping + insurance) plus any applicable duty (which is 0%)

• Brokerage & Handling Fees, Customs Documentary Stamp, Import Processing Fee, potentially Ad Valorem or excise taxes for items like vehicles, tobacco, and alcohol

3. General Tariff Landscape

• Outside of this U.S. deal, the Philippines’ Most Favoured Nation (MFN) tariffs range from 0% up to 65%, depending on the product category.

• On average, applied MFN tariffs for non-agricultural goods are around 5%, and around 10% for agricultural goods, prior to specific trade deals

4. Small Shipments Exempt (“de minimis” rule)

• Packages valued at ₱10,000 or less (about USD 175) are exempt from both import duty and VAT, per the de minimis threshold rule

• This still applies even under the new duty‑free framework, which applies mostly to larger / formal entries.

✅ Summary Table

Item	Tariff on U.S. Goods	Other Charges Still Apply
Formal import (over ₱10 k)	0% duty (under new trade deal)	12% VAT, brokerage fees, stamps, excise duties
Low-value shipments (≤ ₱10 k)	Not subject to duty or VAT (exempt)	May still incur courier handling fees

---

🧾 Example Scenario

If you import a U.S. product valued at ₱15,000 including shipping:

• Customs duty: 0% → ₱ 0

• VAT: 12% of ₱15,000 → ₱1,800

• Other fees (brokerage, stamp, processing): typically ₱300–₱1,500 depending on courier
  So your total tax/fee bill would be around ₱2,100–2,700.

---

📌 Bottom line:
Thanks to the new deal effective July 22, 2025, U.S. exports entering the Philippines now face no import duty, although VAT (12%) and handling fees still apply. Small-value items under ₱10,000 are exempt from both.
