FY2027 COBRA and APHIS User Fee Increases Now in Effect
CBP has announced price increases to COBRA user fees and APHIS user fees beginning in FY2027, raising the cost of certain customs and agriculture inspection services charged at entry. These fee adjustments affect the landed cost calculations for a broad range of commercial imports.
We view FY2027 user fee increases as a cost-of-entry variable that affects all commercial importers regardless of commodity; our position is that these adjustments warrant a review of landed cost models to ensure accurate duty and fee accruals.
