The United States<\/a> is suspending a \u201cde minimis\u201d exemption that allowed low-value commercial shipments to be shipped to the United States without facing tariffs, the White House said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Under an executive order signed by U.S. President Donald Trump<\/a> on Wednesday, packages valued at or under US$800 sent to the U.S. outside of the international postal network will now face \u201call applicable duties\u201d starting August 29, the White House said.<\/p>\n

Trump earlier targeted\u00a0packages from China and Hong Kong<\/a>, and the White House said the recently signed\u00a0tax and spending bill<\/a>\u00a0repealed the legal basis for the de minimis exemption worldwide starting on July 1, 2027.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump is acting more quickly to suspend the de minimis exemption than the OBBBA requires, to deal with national emergencies and save American lives and businesses now,\u201d the White House said in a fact sheet, referring to the bill known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.<\/p>\n

Goods shipped through the postal system will face one of two tariffs: either an \u201cad valorem duty\u201d equal to the effective tariff rate of the package\u2019s country of origin or, for six months, a specific tariff of $80 to $200 depending on the country of origin\u2019s tariff rate.<\/p>\n
