Update on De Minimis Exemption and Shipping Plans
August 29, 2025 - 03:28
Video Games Plus (VGP) has announced its intention to continue shipping products to the United States despite the recent termination of the De Minimis Exemption by the Trump administration. This exemption previously allowed for the duty-free import of goods valued under a specific threshold, facilitating smoother transactions for smaller shipments.
However, VGP has indicated that this regulatory change may lead to adjustments in their shipping strategy. The company is assessing the potential impacts of the new policies on their operations and customer experience. While they remain committed to serving their U.S. customer base, VGP acknowledges that the elimination of the exemption could result in increased shipping costs and longer delivery times.
As the situation evolves, VGP is focused on finding solutions to mitigate any challenges that may arise from these regulatory changes. Customers can expect updates as the company navigates this new landscape in international shipping.
