Australia Post is resuming all US shipping within weeks, after the national delivery service found a way to meet new US tariff rules.<\/p>\n
“While we are planning to lift the temporary suspension on Thursday 25 September, if we are able to lift this earlier, we absolutely will,” Australia Post executive Gary Starr said.<\/p>\n
The government-owned postal service made the extraordinary decision last month to stop delivering many items to the United States in response to the Trump administration introducing a tariff on low-value parcels entering the country.<\/p>\n
Australia Post was just one of many global postal carriers thrown into chaos due to not having systems to collect and distribute the new taxes on imported goods.<\/p>\n
It now says it has a solution to this and will resume all shipping by September 25.<\/p>\n
“Along with more than 190 other postal providers internationally, we’ve been caught in a fast-moving situation not of our making,” Mr Starr said.<\/p>\n
“The real impact has been on our customers who export their goods to the US accessing our cost-efficient postal service, so we’ve been working around the clock to find a solution.”<\/p>\n
