U.S. Shipping Update – Policy Change on Duty-Free Threshold

Dear customers,

Starting August 29, 2025, the United States will suspend the de minimis duty exemption for low-value imports from all countries. This change will affect all shipments to the U.S., regardless of the shipping method — including both postal services and express couriers (such as DHL, UPS).

All shipping options will remain available. Orders shipped before the policy takes effect are expected to remain duty-free. However, after August 29, whether import duties are applied will be determined by U.S. Customs. Any applicable duties or taxes will be the responsibility of the recipient.

📌 Please note:

  • All shipping methods remain available.
  • Orders shipped before August 29, 2025 are expected to remain duty-free.
  • After the policy takes effect, all shipments to the U.S. may be subject to import duties.
  • Any duties or customs fees, if applied, are the responsibility of the recipient.
  • We will monitor updates and post any new information on our website.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
