Why can’t I temporarily send goods to the US?

From 29 August 2025, the US government will change its import rules. For every shipment with goods, import duties must be prepaid, regardless of value. Despite the guidance published by the US, there is still much uncertainty regarding critical elements and processes on how payment must be made, which is why bpost cannot process these shipments for now. That’s why we will temporarily stop sending goods to the US on 23 August.

This measure comes from the US government and applies to all postal companies worldwide, not only bpost.
