How to Estimate Logistics and Import Costs from Brazil to Amazon US Warehouse?
Hi @Connor_Amazon!
We’re currently analyzing the feasibility of selling our products (supplements) from Brazil on Amazon US. At this stage, we’d like to understand if there’s any way to estimate the average costs involved with logistics and import taxes when sending inventory from Brazil to an Amazon US warehouse (using FBA or other models).
We’re still deciding which fulfillment model to adopt, so having a clearer picture of total landed costs (including shipping, customs duties, and FBA fees) would be really helpful for our decision-making.
Does Amazon or any third-party service offer tools or calculators for this purpose?
Any tips from other international sellers who ship from Brazil would also be greatly appreciated. Best regras.

FBA is just the method to get the product to the customer. This has nothing to do with
How could an employee from Amazon tell you what does shipping cost from Brazil to USA and how much customs and taxes you will pay? That's exactly YOUR task to find this out. Google is here, and each seller did put hundreds and thousands of hours for investigations BEFORE taking steps and decisions.
Did you do the most important investigation? How many results do you see on .com typing your specific keyword? Sorry for being sarcastic, but sometimes I just can shake my head about naive, enthusiastic new sellers, unaware of all the legal (and other) dangers.
Another advice: do a quick search in this forum, like this: Go on top and click “Discussions”, put the filters on the left on «Recommended” and “Past year”, then write "supplements" in the search bar on top and read the threads. You will certainly get some enlightenment.
