From August 29, the rules for duty-free import of packages into the US are changing
27 August 2025
Dear customers!
(❗️Delivery and forwarding within the USA remain unchanged)
Starting from August 29, 2025, the usual duty exemption (de minimis) for parcels sent from other countries to the USA is being canceled in the USA.
Previously, goods worth up to $800 could be received without duties. Now any international parcel to the USA will be subject to fees — either according to the tariffs of the sender country, or fixed ($80–200 per item).
What this means for you:
-
If you order independently from foreign online stores (EU, Canada, Asia, etc.) to the Pochtoy.com warehouse, the duty will be charged upon import into the USA. Payment is made by the recipient(buyer).
-
If you place an order through operators, payment of the tax may also be required at checkout. In this case, the client makes the payment. The exact tax amount can be found out after the goods arrive at the warehouse.
Important: the changes will not affect most clients who order goods from the USA to other countries.
For 99% of service users, delivery conditions will remain the same.
We understand that this is a significant change and may affect your orders. We are monitoring the situation and will keep you informed.
