Freight is an input, not a quoted figure: the calculator starts at a placeholder $0.40/kg — replace it with your forwarder's quote.

Import VAT / GST is usually reclaimable if you are registered — it is a cash-flow cost, not a margin cost.
About this lane
Japan protects its roasting industry with a 12% WTO rate on roasted coffee (the statutory general rate is 20%). For Vietnamese beans roasted at origin, the Japan–Viet Nam EPA and CPTPP both bring that to free. The agreements Vietnam shares with Japan are not equal, though: the ASEAN–Japan (AJCEP) column still shows 12%, and RCEP 7.5%.
So name the right agreement when you file. Imported food is taxed at the reduced 8% consumption tax (6.24% national plus 1.76% local).
FAQ
Which agreement gives Vietnamese roasted coffee 0% in Japan?
The Japan–Viet Nam EPA and CPTPP both show Free for 0901.21-000. AJCEP shows 12% and RCEP 7.5%, so claiming the wrong one costs money (checked 2026-10-01).
What consumption tax applies?
8%, the reduced rate for food.
What is the duty without a preference?
12%, Japan's WTO rate (the statutory general rate is 20%).
How does volumetric weight (CBM) affect landed cost for Vietnamese Roasted Coffee Import Calculator (Japan)?
Volumetric weight converts box dimensions (L × W × H in cm) ÷ 5,000 into chargeable kilograms. Ocean LCL and air freight bill on whichever is higher between actual gross weight and volumetric weight, so low-density bulky goods inflate landed cost even when light.
How is landed cost and recommended retail margin calculated?
Landed cost = (FOB unit cost × MOQ) + chargeable freight + (FOB + freight) × duty rate. Retail price for an X% margin = landed cost ÷ (1 − X/100). At 45% margin, every $1 of landed cost requires $1.82 of retail price.
What is the standard volumetric divisor and when does it change?
Default is 5,000 cm³/kg, used for general air freight consolidation and ocean LCL. Some express airlines use 6,000; domestic couriers use 4,000–5,000. If your forwarder applies a different divisor, manually adjust the chargeable weight.
What's the difference between Incoterms FOB, CIF, and DDP?
FOB (Free On Board): the seller delivers to the origin port; the buyer pays freight and insurance. CIF (Cost Insurance Freight): the seller covers freight and insurance to the destination port, but you handle customs clearance and last-mile. DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): the seller delivers to your door with all duties paid — most expensive but simplest.
Which payment method is safest for a first international B2B order?
Small orders (under $10K): T/T 30% deposit + 70% against B/L copy. Medium ($10–50K): L/C (letter of credit) with the bank as escrow. Large (over $50K): escrow via Alibaba Trade Assurance or pre-shipment inspection (PSI). Never pay 100% upfront on a first transaction.
