The Trump administration's new tariff plan eliminates the de minimis exemption, which previously allowed packages valued under $800 from China to enter the US duty-free. Starting May 2nd, new tariffs will impose a fee of 30% or $25 on packages sent through the international postal network. Other shipments, like those from DHL, will face elevated tariffs, complicating the shopping experience for consumers relying on retailers like Temu and Shein. This shift, following a previously paused plan, is expected to disrupt online shopping significantly.
With the removal of the de minimis exemption, US consumers will face significantly higher costs on packages from China, impacting online shopping habits.
Beginning May 2nd, packages valued under $800 from China will incur a 30% fee or a $25 per item charge, massively increasing prices for consumers.
