US Postal Service backtracks on not accepting parcels from China, Hong Kong

The US Postal Service said that it would again accept parcels from China and Hong Kong, reversing a 12-hour suspension after President Donald Trump scrapped an exemption used by retailers including Temu, Shein, and Amazon to ship low-value packages duty-free to the United States. The about-face added to the growing confusion among retailers and express shipping firms over how to deal with Trump’s new 10% tariff on imports from China and his closure of the de minimis duty exemption for packages valued at under $800, with the stated aim of stopping the flow of fentanyl and precursor chemicals into the United States. Major international shippers promised to maintain deliveries, but disruptions may still occur as the USPS works out how tariffs on small packages would be collected in tandem with the US Customs and Border Protection department, as per a report.
