US Stops Parcels From China

Sharing is caring!

United States Postal Service says it has stopped accepting parcels from mainland China and Hong Kong until further notice.

The company, however, said Letters will not be affected by the suspension, but declined to offer a reason for the decision.

The announcement comes just days after US President Donald Trump signed an executive order that terminated a long-standing rule that allowed anyone, including exporters, to ship packages worth less than $800 to the United States without duties or needing to undergo inspections.

It also followed the introduction of a broad-based 10% tariff on Chinese imports to the US, which took effect yesterday.
