Nordic postal operators pause shipments to the U.S. as Trump ends parcel tariff relief

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) -Swedish and Norwegian postal groups PostNord and Posten Bring are pausing shipments to the United States ahead of the scrapping of a U.S. customs tax loophole that allows duty-free entry for low-value parcels, they said on Wednesday.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration said last month it would suspend the global “de minimis” exemption, which also allows minimal paperwork, for international shipments under $800 effective August 29.
