- The USD 800 Section 321 de minimis exemption (19 U.S.C. 1321(a)(2)(C)) is suspended for all countries. Executive Order 14324 ended it for goods entered on or after 29 August 2025, "regardless of value, country of origin, mode of transportation, or method of entry"; Executive Order 14388 (20 February 2026) continued the suspension, and CBP interim final rules made it indefinite from 24 June 2026 (mail shipments: new postal informal entry process from 24 July 2026). Shipments valued at USD 800 or less now need a formal or informal customs entry and are subject to applicable duties, taxes and fees. Still exempt: bona fide gifts up to USD 100 sent by a person abroad to a person in the US (USD 200 from the US Virgin Islands, Guam or American Samoa), and the separate personal exemption for goods accompanying travellers.
Verify against U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for the current threshold.
