The White House has confirmed that cheap Chinese small parcels will no longer be exempt from tariffs starting 2 May, according to an amendment to Trump's executive order published today.
These items will be subject to a duty rate of 90% of their value or $75 per item, which will increase to $150 after 1 June.
Previously, goods from China and Hong Kong valued at less than $800 were given the duty free de minimis treatment - meaning they were allowed to enter the US tariff-free.
The change will most noticeably affect shipments from fast fashion brands like Shein and Temu.
