    Ships from Kyoto, Japan

    Import duty applies

    12.5%

    Est. Duty

    $46–$223

    on $368–$1780 watch

    VAT and customs fees included in product price for some regions per KUOE shipping policy. US import duty status unclear.

    Japan is capped at 12.5% total including MFN duty under the Section 301 forced-labor tariffs (effective July 24, 2026). Japanese movements (Miyota, Seiko) are components — the tariff applies to where the finished watch is assembled, not where the movement is made.

    Tariffs are assessed based on where the watch is assembled, not where individual components originate. A watch with a Japanese movement assembled in the US incurs no import duty.
