- DAF fee
- 20% × landed cost
- Client price
- landed cost + fee
Install is coordinated through vetted local partners and billed at cost. It carries no fee, so it never enters these numbers.

† Planning estimates. The fee base is fixed — 20% of landed cost — but per-lane rates are quoted the day a real plan is issued. All figures illustrative; a costed plan is the quote.
The math, live.
Move the slider. Watch the ledger.
Real LCL rates from Freightos, refreshed every few hours. Duty is CBSA-current for wooden furniture (940310–940380 — MFN 0% CN → CA). Numbers are illustrative, not a quote. This ocean-freight lane is reference market data DAF uses to keep its landed-cost math honest — DAF's own sourcing runs through DAF Global Connect (Eprolo + Shopify Collective).
