Appliances Shipping Cost from Kiev to San Antonio, Texas

Shipping from Ukraine to the US typically takes 1 to 4 weeks, varying greatly by carrier, service (air vs. sea), and current conditions, with express options as fast as 4-7 days but standard air freight often 2-3 weeks and sea freight much longer (40+ days for large cargo), factoring in customs delays at both ends.

Import fees from Ukraine to the U.S. now generally include a 10% tariff (or specific rates for some items) applied to the value of goods, plus potential carrier brokerage fees (e.g., UPS's $12 or Meest's $5) and possible PGA (Programmatic Guidance for Agencies) fees for regulated items, with low-value exemptions mostly suspended, requiring payment by the recipient, often electronically before delivery. The total cost depends on the item's classification (using the Harmonized Tariff Schedule ), value, and shipping carrier, so check your items' specific HTS code for exact duty rates.

The largest postal operators in Ukraine, Ukrposhta and Nova Poshta, have raised the cost of shipping parcels to the United States due to duties imposed by President Donald Trump. Starting August 29, 2025, the U.S. Presidential Decree eliminates the preferential duty-free threshold of $800 (the so-called "de minimis").
