🇺🇸 USA (United States)
Effective August 29th, 2025, the United States has ended the $800 de minimis exemption for all international shipments, regardless of origin.
This means all parcels sent to the U.S. will now be subject to import duties and/or flat-rate charges, even if the total value is below $800. The method of shipping now plays a significant role in how charges are applied:
📮 If shipping via Government or National Postal Networks (e.g. Royal Mail, Evri, DPD, USPS)
- Flat-rate import charges of $80–$200 per parcel or face value-based tariffs (known as ad valorem duties) will be applied for the first 6 months.
- After this, shipments will face value-based tariffs (known as ad valorem duties).
🚚 If shipping via UPS, FedEx, or DHL (Third-Party Couriers)
- Duties are calculated as a percentage of your order’s total value (items + shipping).
- UK-origin goods face: 10% tariff
- A brokerage/handling fee of ~$12–$14 is typically added by UPS or other couriers.
🔁 CURRENT TARIFFS ON GOODS BY ORIGIN
🇬🇧 UK-Origin Goods
- 4–7% ad valorem duty (U.S. customs category dependent)
- +10% U.S. baseline tariff (April 2025 ruling)
- Affects all VIKASSPACE products including but not limited to: Embroidery Kits, Leather Goods, Market-Ready Products and more.
🇨🇳 Chinese-Origin Goods
- 4–7% ad valorem duty (product dependent)
- +30% U.S. tariff (active since May 2025)
- Applies regardless of shipping country
- Includes: Enamel Needle Minders and Scissors
📦 Important: When a parcel contains both UK and Chinese-origin goods, the entire order value + shipping is tariffed at the highest applicable rate (e.g. 30%).
⚠️ SHIPPING NOTICE FOR CHINESE 🇨🇳 ORIGIN GOODS
If your order includes Chinese-origin products (e.g. enamel needle minders or scissors), select Courier (This will be the only option available from August 22nd) at checkout.
- Postal shipments (passed to USPS) are charged a flat fee of $80–$200 per parcel.
- Courier avoids the flat fee, but all contents + shipping are tariffed at 30%, and a $12–$14 brokerage fee applies.
📦 Example:
- $20 of Chinese-origin product
- $80 of UK product
- $100 subtotal incl. shipping
- Entire $100 taxed at 30% = $30 tariff + $14 UPS fee = $44 total import charge
⚠️ DISCLAIMER
By placing an order with me, you AGREE to pay any import duties, taxes, or tariffs required by your country’s customs authorities. Failure to pay may result in delays, returns, or package destruction. I cannot offer refunds in such cases.
