Product Sandbox, N x M Tariff Matrix for Product-Line Decisions
Retire the multi-tab Excel of HTS codes, countries, and landed costs. Product Sandbox compares N products against M source countries in one matrix, highlights the lowest landed cost automatically, quantifies FTA savings in dollars, and keeps a timestamped Selection History of every committed decision.
From Catalog to a Documented Decision in Three Steps
Configure the Matrix
Set shipment value, entry date, freight terms, and source countries once, then apply them to every product in the workspace.
Compare, Drill Down, and Save
The matrix highlights the lowest landed cost in each row and across the workspace. Drill into any cell, then save the decision to Selection History.
What Monday Morning Looks Like With Sandbox
01 / Per-Product View
One Matrix, Every Country, Every HTS Candidate
Landed cost for every product across every selected country in one grid, with row-best and global-best cells highlighted in green and recalculated against today's tariff schedules. No more five browser tabs of USITC lookups.
02 / Workspace
Workspace Overview, Every SKU in One Frame
Every product under analysis on one page. The Radar Alert tab flags SKUs hit by a policy change, the Not Calculated tab catches missing configurations, and the Special Rate column previews FTA eligibility before you open the matrix.
03 / Audit Trail
Selection History, Every Decision on Record
Every committed decision is written to a timestamped record: HTS candidate, country, configuration, and the duty stack at the time. When you need to revisit why a combination was chosen, the full context is one click away.
04 / FTA Savings
FTA Compare Drawer + Special Rate Map
The FTA Compare Drawer shows the exact dollar delta between an FTA preference and the MFN rate. The Special Rate Map color codes every country by Active, Expired, or Pending FTA status.
What No Other Tariff Tool Does Together
Decide
The decision surface where you compare every product against every country in one canvas.
N x M Tariff Matrix
Every product (rows) against every selected source country (columns) in one view. Row-best and global-best cells are highlighted automatically. Click any cell to expand the full duty stack: MFN base rate, Section 301, Section 232, Section 122, Chapter 99 surcharges, MPF, and HMF.
Document
Keep a complete record of every classification you committed to.

Selection History (Decision Log)
Every committed selection writes the HTS, country, configuration, and full tariff calculation to a timestamped history. 19 CFR 163.4 requires importers to retain classification records for five years, and Selection History builds that record automatically as you work.
Scale
From a single SKU to a thousand-product catalog, without losing the decision log.
Bulk Import + World Map Country Picker
Upload an Excel or CSV of up to thousands of SKUs in one shot. Use the interactive world map to add source countries by region, with countries shaded by FTA status (Active / Expired / Pending). Save favorite country sets so you never reselect the same group twice.

Sourcing Teams
Quantify the dollar impact of moving SKUs from one origin to another
Product Line PMs
Build board-ready sourcing recommendations with documented assumptions
Compliance Managers
Keep a timestamped record of every classification and country selection
CFO / Finance
Model duty cost scenarios across multiple sourcing strategies for budget planning
Customs Brokers
Run pre-entry FTA eligibility checks for client portfolios in one workspace
The Friday Afternoon Problem
"When a new Section 301 list lands on a Friday afternoon, I need to know by Monday morning which of my SKUs are affected, what each one will cost to land if I shift sourcing to an alternate country, whether I can claim FTA preference on the new origin, and when a CF 28 inquiry shows up eighteen months later, I need to be able to explain why I chose what I chose."
How Sandbox Carries That Job
| Find the affected SKUs in minutes, not days | The matrix loads every product against every selected country at once. You see the shape of the impact at a glance, then drill in. |
|---|---|
| Quantify the dollar delta before recommending a move | Any cell expands to the full duty stack, and the FTA Compare Drawer shows exactly what the preference saves per shipment. |
| Explain the decision eighteen months later, when someone asks | Selection History holds the timestamped record of what was chosen, under which configuration, and why. |
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Product Sandbox different from a tariff calculator?
+
A tariff calculator answers 'what is the duty on this one HTS code from this one country.' Product Sandbox answers 'across these N products and M source countries, which combinations give me the lowest landed cost, where does FTA preference apply, and what record do I have of the decision I just made.' It is a product-line decision canvas, not a single-line calculator.
What is Selection History and what does it record?
+
Selection History is a timestamped record of every committed product, country, and configuration combination, including the HTS candidate used and the duty stack at the time. 19 CFR 163.4 requires importers to retain classification records for five years, and Product Sandbox builds that documentation automatically as you work, instead of leaving it scattered across emails and spreadsheets.
How do sourcing teams use Product Sandbox when a new Section 301 list lands?
+
For sourcing teams managing dozens to hundreds of SKUs, the Compliance Radar Alert tab inside Product Sandbox lists exactly which products the new policy touches. The N x M matrix then compares alternate source countries side by side, including FTA preference, so a Friday afternoon announcement becomes a Monday morning recommendation.
Does Sandbox integrate with the HTS Classifier?
+
Yes. Products you research in the HTS Classifier carry their candidate codes directly into Sandbox via Pending Tariff Badges. When the Compliance Radar surfaces a policy change, the Sandbox 'Radar Alert' tab lists exactly which of your products need to be re-evaluated, and a single click jumps you back into the Classifier or the Sandbox cell for that product.
Can I bulk import an existing product catalog?
+
Yes. Bulk Import accepts Excel and CSV files. You can upload thousands of SKUs in one shot. Sandbox parses the HTS codes, applies your saved configuration template (countries, shipment value, dates), and renders the full matrix without you keying products in one by one.

Compliance Reminder
This is an HTS classification researcher. Results are for general reference, educational, and planning purposes only, designed to enable better communication between trade compliance teams, importers, and licensed customs brokers. Per CBP Ruling HQ H290535, providing HTS classifications beyond 6 digits for specific imports constitutes "customs business" under 19 U.S.C. § 1641. Do not use these results directly in customs entry documents without independent review by a licensed customs broker.
