Recently, international logistics giant DHL announced that from April 21, the company will temporarily suspend sending customs declarations of business-to-consumer (B2C) goods worth more than US$800 to individuals in the United States until further notice.
DHL said that according to new U.S. customs regulations, starting from April 5, all goods declared to be worth more than $800 must go through formal entry procedures, while the previous limit was $2,500.
This change has led to a surge in formal customs clearance business, which is difficult for the company to deal with.
Work is being made to improve its customs clearance capabilities as goods declared with a value of more than $800 may face multiple days of shipping delays.

Recently, the Ministry of Commerce responded to the US raising tariffs on small parcels.A reporter asked that China's cross-border e-commerce has grown rapidly in recent years, but as the United States will cancel the exemption policy of small parcel tariffs and even increase related tariffs, what are China's prospects for its own cross-border e-commerce and what subsidy plans does it have?
In this regard, He Yongqian, spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce, said that cross-border e-commerce has the unique advantages of high efficiency, fast arrival and low costs. It can better meet consumers' personalized and diversified consumption needs. It is an important trend in the innovative development of international trade and has become an indispensable lifestyle for people.
Recently, the United States has made destructive adjustments to its small parcel tariff policy, which will seriously affect the interests of American consumers.What I want to emphasize is that cross-border e-commerce is a new trade method that conforms to the global consumption development trend and brings together hundreds of millions of consumers. Policy adjustments in related fields should be conveniently turned into directions.We are willing to work with all countries to strengthen exchanges and cooperation and jointly promote the healthy and sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce.
