The HTSUS 2026 Master Rate Workbook turns the entire Harmonized Tariff Schedule into one Excel engine -- 3,327 verified rate lines with Section 301, 232, and 122 overlays that calculate your total applicable rate the moment you enter a code.
Actual screenshots from the workbook, annotated with callout labels. No mockups -- this is the file you download.
Live captures of the Command Center itself -- included free with every purchase -- importing your workbook and turning a lookup into a board-ready story.
Enter your 8-digit HS code in the Auto-Fill Lookup tab. The tool returns the duty rate, description, chapter, and every applicable overlay flag (Section 301, 232, 122) instantly using pre-built VLOOKUP formulas.
Yes. A single code can carry a general rate plus Section 301 plus Section 232 at once, and the new Forced Labor tariffs stack too unless the code is a Section 232 article. Example: steel tubing from China (7308.90.95) = 0% + 25% + 50% + 0% (232 articles excluded from Forced Labor) = 75% total landed-cost impact.
No. It is structured from official USITC data (2026 HTS Rev 4) and formatted for business use in Excel. Every rate traces back to the official Harmonized Tariff Schedule -- always verify at hts.usitc.gov before filing.
No. It opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice. Sheet protection guards the formulas against accidental edits while data entry, sorting, filtering, and inserting rows stay enabled -- and the unprotect password ships in the Start Here guide, so you can still modify the workbook structure for your own internal workflows.
TAF-097 ($97) is the data layer -- verified HTSUS 2026 rates with a 200-row auto-fill engine. SKB-027 ($27) is the response-planning layer -- a 17-tab workbook for dashboards, supplier tracking, and team checklists. Paste your verified rates from TAF-097's Auto-Fill Lookup tab into SKB-027's Data Input tab and every response plan, dashboard, and executive metric in SKB-027 auto-populates.
Yes. The Command Center is a single static HTML file: no server, no login, no account. When you upload your .xlsx, your browser reads it directly off your hard drive and holds it in memory for that tab only. Nothing is transmitted anywhere -- you can disconnect from the internet before uploading and it still works.

Free rate-lookup tools stop at the general duty rate. This one stacks every layer that actually determines your landed cost.

Most tariff lookup tools tell you the general duty rate and stop there. The Tariff Auto-Fill Upgrade™ stacks the general rate with Section 301, Section 232, and the new Forced Labor tariffs the moment you enter an 8-digit HS code -- and keeps the closed Section 122 program's frozen history for protests and drawback -- so the number in front of you is the actual landed-cost impact, not just one layer of it.
Instead of cross-referencing USITC pages, three overlay bulletins, and a country FTA list by hand, this workbook does it in one lookup. Paste your codes into the yellow cells and every field -- rate, description, chapter, and all three overlay flags -- fills in at once.
Standardized status indicator legend for the whole workbook.
Data sourcing, version history, and the standard disclaimer.
Column mapping to every other Career Chronicles product.
200 input rows, 2,000+ VLOOKUPs. Enter a code, get every field.
50 countries with FTA, GSP, overlay exposure, and risk.
3,327 verified 8-digit HTS lines -- the core database.
Closed program (7/24/26): frozen status per code, kept for protests and drawback.
Steel, aluminum, copper, autos -- tiered 15%-50%.
16 China categories at 25%-100%, plus the live Forced Labor tariffs (60 economies, 10-12.5%).
Troubleshooting, data sources, and risk-level definitions.
Upload your saved .xlsx file directly -- no CSV export, no copy-paste -- and get a live executive exposure summary: total lines reviewed, average combined duty rate, and a category-by-category breakdown. Click Presentation Mode for a board-ready deck built from the same numbers. Nothing you upload ever leaves your browser.
You're not buying a standalone spreadsheet -- you're buying into a methodology. The Automation tier is where verified data replaces manual lookup, and everything downstream gets faster because of it.
