Important notice: New US tariff rules for postal shipments – Effective 29 August 2025

The United States recently announced significant changes to its import tariff rules that will impact customers sending items from Australia to the US.

The changes are described in a US Executive Order. Australia Post is working closely with the United States Postal Service (USPS), US Customs & Border Protection (CBP) and the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), along with third-party platform partners, the Universal Postal Union (UPU) and other partners to ensure accurate information concerning the changes is shared with customers, and to provide updates as they are available.

Effective 29 August 2025, the key changes, are as follows:

  1. Suspension of de minimis threshold:
    • The USD$800 exemption for low-value goods has been removed for postal and commercial sending.
  2. Mandatory customs declaration requirements:
    • Every shipment from Australia to the US must include:
      1. Country of origin (COO) in your customs declaration and the manifest. For clarity, country of origin refers to the country of manufacture.
      2. Value of goods in your customs declaration and the manifest. This must be declared accurately for each item within your parcel.
      3. Harmonized System (HS) tariff code for each item in your customs declaration and manifest. It is your responsibility to ensure that the correct HS tariff number/s is used. You can use our auto-lookup or refer to the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade website if entering manually.
  3. Duties are to be collected prior to goods entering the US:
    • US Customs & Border Protection has indicated that the duties and taxes will be collected on goods prior to entering the US. CBP has not yet advised the preferred method for duty and tax collection.
