Any goods shipped through the international postal network will be subject to tariff rates based on the value of the package and its country of origin.

Trump claims shippers have been exploiting the de minimis exemption because such packages typically draw less scrutiny. De minimis is a customs law that allows imported goods valued below $800 to enter the country without incurring duties or formal customs procedures.

President Trump’s new executive order suspends the de minimis exemption for global low-value imports, a move that could raise prices for online shoppers and restrict package shipments from retailers like Shein and Temu.
