U.S. Customer Orders Paused - Tariff Actions

U.S. Duty-Free Imports Ended August 29 ...

The U.S. government has issued an executive order to suspend all duty-free imports (your Section 321 $800/day import exemption), regardless of country of origin. 

Packages from Canada and International countries will no longer enter the U.S. duty-free.

Here’s what this means for you as our valued US-based customer:

🧾 U.S. Customs will charge duties, fees and taxes on all orders, no matter the value.

💸 These duties could be 35% of the order value ... OR ... a flat $80–$200 per item for shipments through the mail... there is no clear answer yet.

Unfortunately, there is no clear or definitive answer regarding how much these new import tariffs will be or how they will be collected at the US border. 

We simply don't know yet. 

So, to protect you, the US customer from these unknown charges... 

We have temporarily paused all US orders & shipments from August 21st until early September.  US customers will not be able to create a shopping cart.

We hope to learn what changes & costs are implemented during this time. We are exploring other shipping alternatives to reduce or avoid additional duties / tariffs.

It is regretful that we have to take this temporary measure, however we feel it's best to protect you the customer from potentially significant and unknown charges at the border.

We’ll keep you posted as we learn more regarding updated shipping processes and Tariff collection/costs under this Tariff Action. 

PLEASE NOTE:  Canadian and International orders will process as normal.

Canadian purchasers are required to pay the HST/GST per your provincial rates. International purchasers are subject to VAT/Duties per your country's import rules.

 

In the spirit of transparency and honesty,

Renée & Nick Masney
