USPS has new obligations to inspect incoming packages from China and Hong Kong
Rules previously awarded exemption from packages that are valued under $ 800 from Customs and Inspection
The new tariffs take indirect targets on E -trading platforms hosting sellers operating in these regions
The United States Postal Service (USPS) has begun to reject international packages from China and Hong Kong after the former introduction of tariffs on US imports in retaliation against President Trump’s own introduction of a 10% duty on Chinese imports.
In a short statement (via CNN), USPS said the measure would be in place until “further notice”, but also “the flow of letters and apartments from China and Hong Kong will not be affected”.
