Navigating US Tariff Changes & the End of US De Minimis: A Guide by UK Fulfilment

1. What's Changed?

As of August 29, 2025, the United States officially scrapped its longstanding $800 de minimis threshold for all commercial shipments.

Previously, low-value shipments could enter the US duty-free. Now, every parcel is subject to formal entry, duties and additional documentation.

2. What This Means For UK Brands

Higher landed costs for US customers.

More complex customs paperwork.

Slower transit times if your carrier isn't equipped.

3. How To Adapt

Work with a fulfilment partner experienced in DDP shipping, IOSS, and US compliance to keep your customer experience smooth.
