DHL Suspension of Shipments: DHL has announced it will suspend standard parcel shipments for businesses to the United States due to new U.S. customs duties on low-value packages.
U.S. Customs Changes: The suspension aligns with the U.S. administration's decision to halt the "de minimis" exemption for international shipments under $800, effective August 29.
Impact on Other Postal Services: Similar suspensions have been implemented by postal services in Scandinavia, Austria, and Belgium, citing new requirements from U.S. authorities.
Private Customer Shipments: Private customers can still send gifts valued under $100 to the U.S., but these will face stricter controls to prevent misuse.
