U.S. TARIFFS & DUTIES
COLLECTION OF DUTIES & TARIFFS FOR UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
- As of 29th August 2025, the U.S. government placed tariffs on all items entering the United States (the $800.00 de minimis threshold was removed)
- U.S. customers are now required to pay the tariffs by order of the U.S. government
- Tariff % depends on country of origin
The U.S. government has imposed the responsibility on individual sellers to collect on their behalf
As a result of this, Australia Post has partnered with Zonos which is U.S. based 3rd party shipping service provider whom will be collecting and paying the tariffs to the U.S. government on our behalf.
Please read the following which includes important information in regards to tariff collection.
The changes you will notice:
- The tariff for Australia is 10% which will be applied to most of our products, however, some of our items are manufactured in China and tariff on those products can be up to 30% (tariff % is determined by the U.S. government and is subject to change based on updated policies)
- When you reach checkout, you will see additional line items showing the duties/ tariff value for your order which will be added to the final total
Example:

- Once you have placed your order, requirements have been met and you will not incur any further duties or taxes as landed costs will have been paid
- The duties / tariffs we collect through orders are paid to Australia Post / Zonos who then settle with the U.S. government - please understand that we do not control, implement, profit from, or retain any monies associated to duties & tariffs.
- We are unable to modify, alter or remove duties / tariffs as they apply to each product purchased - this is a U.S. government mandatory requirement which cannot be circumnavigated in any manner.

⭐️ Zonos charges a handling fee + % of the tariffs to carry out their service for us - this has been calculated at an average of AUD $4.00 per parcel - and we have made the decision to absorb this cost as a supportive gesture to you.
We know that none of this is super duper, but hope that our information helps and that you are happy to have the choice to shop with us again - we really look forward to continuing to ship to the U.S. and look forward to a happy future with you :)
Thank you so very much for all your support, a lot of you have been with us for a long time and for that we are incredibly grateful - we appreciate you all enormously! ❤️
