President Donald Trump's tariffs on Chinese goods have already started affecting US consumers, with additional fees being seen on shipments from China. Clint Reid, CEO of a company offering cross-border commerce software, shared screenshots showing extra charges on DHL shipments. Import duties are also being requested on packages from various sources, with some users reporting being asked to pay extra due to the tariffs. The Trump administration's recent order imposed a 10 percent tariff on Chinese goods and closed the de minimis exception, resulting in more shipments from China being subject to additional charges. The US Postal Service briefly suspended inbound package shipments from China and Hong Kong before reversing course, working with Customs and Border Protection to implement an efficient collection mechanism for the new tariffs. In addition to China, tariffs have also been ordered on goods from Mexico and Canada, although these have been temporarily paused. The impact of these tariffs on consumers and businesses remains to be seen, with ongoing developments in trade relations between the US and its trading partners.
