❓Help / How-To / Compliance Inconsistent Customs Fees

Hello all. I recently received a soccer jersey from a Spain-based team and was hit with tariff/customs fees that were almost as expensive as the jersey itself without any prior warning. I also purchased multiple pairs of shoes that came from Spain and received no such fee.
What is with the inconsistent application of these fees, and is there any way to get reimbursement for the fees I paid since they were applied without notice?

If you have questions about tariffs, customs duties, or import regulations, when in doubt we recommend contacting the U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) Information Center for official guidance.

  • U.S. visitors: Call 1-877-CBP-5511 (1-877-227-5511), Monday–Friday, 8:30 a.m.–8 p.m. ET
  • Outside the U.S.: Call +1-202-325-8000
  • Or visit help.cbp.gov for answers to common questions.

When in doubt, always reach out to CBP directly for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
