The effect of US tariffs on Varusteleka

How do the new US tariffs affect Varusteleka shipments to the USA? 

UPDATE on May 30, 2025: We have temporarily paused the shipping of products made in China to the US. This is to avoid any additional tariffs sanctioned on the orders at the US customs. All made-in-China products have a disclaimer on the product page. You cannot continue with your order if it contains items made in China and you have selected the United States as your country. Extra taxes won't be added to other products, as long as the total amount of the order is under $800.

UPDATE on May 5, 2025: US customs is currently stopping parcels containing Made in China products and will impose a heavy duty on those. So, if you want to avoid that, don't buy Made in China products. You can find the country of origin for each product on the product page.

There is a de minimis rule for goods imported to the U.S., which means that goods worth less than $800 can enter duty-free. This rule will remain valid for EU/Finland (it has been canceled for shipments/products from China and Hong Kong on May 2nd). In other words, if your order value is under $800 and does not include items made in China, these tariffs will not incur additional costs for you.

We will closely follow how the situation develops.

If there are any major changes, we’ll let you know!
