President Trump has initiated a 10% tariff on a wide range of imports, prompting US Customs to enforce stricter entry processing for all shipments exceeding $800. This change, effective April 5, has resulted in significant delays and disruptions, particularly for major international carriers who have begun suspending their high-value business-to-consumer shipments. While the carriers strive to manage the situation, the new requirements mirror those previously limited to higher-value shipments, resulting in severe logistical challenges for both businesses and consumers in the US market.
President Trump's decision to impose blanket tariffs of 10% on goods arriving in America has led to significant delays and logistical challenges for shipments.
Due to new Customs requirements, shipments over $800 are now facing the same red tape that previously applied to much higher value shipments, creating severe delays.
Carriers have been working tirelessly to minimize disruption but the situation is unsustainable. Two major European carriers have suspended B2C shipments due to these new tariffs.
Even though there are suspensions for certain high-value services, shipments with declared Customs values below $800 continue to operate without issues.
