New US Tariff Rules - Japanese Products Still Exempt (Under $800)
Only applicable to US based orders. Other countries unaffected.
As of May 2nd, the U.S. has removed the $800 duty-free exemption for items made in China or Hong Kong. This means those products may now be subject to import taxes, even if the total order value is under $800.
This does not affect products made in Japan. Shipments valued under $800 are still eligible for duty-free entry into the U.S. just like before. Orders over $800 may face standard import duties.
We’re updating all of our listings to clearly indicate country of origin so you know exactly what to expect!
