The United States Postal Service has suspended the receipt of international packages from China and Hong Kong, jeopardizing the operations of e-commerce companies like Shein and Temu. The reason for the suspension has not been stated, but the postal service announced that it will not affect the flow of letters. This decision comes after President Donald Trump revoked the “de minimis” exemption, which allowed packages valued at less than $800 to be sent without customs duties. Additionally, a 10% tariff has been imposed on Chinese imports. These changes could significantly impact Chinese businesses.
