Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Import duties and customs treatment materially change the landed cost of Pearl.
A range review that ignores import duties and customs will often produce a confident decision and a disappointing quarter on the Pearl.
The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Pearl economics actually settle.
Why import duties and customs matters on the Pearl
Classification codes differ between devices and liquids in many markets.
Cash flow is the quiet constraint behind import duties and customs: the cheapest option is rarely the one that frees the most working capital.
Incorrect declarations are the most common cause of clearance delay.
