Currently, the shipping companies appear to attend the largest part of the burden resulting from the new trade rules, not all happy to do so. In response to Trump’s tariff, two logistical, Dhl Hong Kong and The Hongkong Post, Declare They will not accept the individual beams that are shipped to the United States. The owner of the Alberta -based truck transport company, Canada, told WAID that he is planning to pay the price of duties outside the pocket first and impose customers after that.
It is expected that the elimination of the 800 -dollar fee exemption will reach low -cost Chinese shopping platforms such as Shein and TEMU the most difficult, but many smaller e -commerce sellers felt burned. Selling brands Mechanical keyboardsand underwearAnd tea All of its customers have reported that possible shipping stops and increased prices in response to the definitions, according to the joint screenshots on Reddit.
Miguel Sherrade, the owner of the Canadian Painting Extensions Company, says that many of his customers have been asked by UPS to pay heavy import fees for products made in China. His company sources are products from Chinese manufacturers, but they charge them outside Canada. However, they slapped with sudden import duties.
In one of the examples, Schraeder participated with WIRED, the customer submitted a $ 30 request on Friday before announcing the customs tariff, and UPS was now asked to pay $ 52.22 to receive the package, which exceeds 170 percent of the original price of the element.
He says that even the new definitions entered into force, as it has been shipped permanently for customs customers exempt. He actually encouraged his customers to submit applications before the end of last week to try to avoid the charge, but still ends with fees.
Sherrade says that he spoke to his usual contact with UPS, who told him that there are hundreds of thousands of beams kept for the same reason. “It seems that there is no system that has been prepared in place yet to deal with this properly,” said Sharrara. “They only receive everyone’s reward [fees] As if it was $ 800. Perhaps this is why people are imposed on these high fees on these low -cost elements. They mentioned that they are looking to reform this, but they are not promising anything. “
Chraeder expects to lose money from this chaos because customers can refuse to pay import fees and return the elements at the account of the seller. As a result, it is planned to temporarily suspend sales to the United States.
One of the complex factors for some small business owners is that Trump’s tariff targets the original country where the products have been manufactured, which means that it does not matter whether the elements produced in China are sitting in another country for years before reaching the United States. “My problem is that used clothes often have a missing or unread brand,” says Brown, the employer of used clothes.
Like many other people, Brown says his packages have been removed on the American -Canadian border on Tuesday. He can apply for official entry and try to charge products to the United States again, but he says he will cost a lot of money and time. “For a direct future, I withdraw all the elements made of China and put my platforms on holidays to prevent sales. It is an extremist, but it is the only just choice for my customers, I feel.”
