What changed: the end of duty-free Temu

Until 2025, packages under $800 entered the US duty-free under the de minimis rule — the loophole Temu's business model was built on. Executive action eliminated that exemption for China-origin goods. Now every China-direct parcel is assessed: MFN duty by HS code + Section 301 (7.5–25%) + the flat 10% Section 122 import surcharge. On a typical clothing order that stacks to 35%+ of the item price.

Shoppers

Checkout said $25, then a customs bill or 'import charges' line appeared and the order cost 40% more.

Resellers

Sourcing from Temu for resale worked until tariff stacking quietly erased the margin on every unit.

Per-unit landed cost — duty + Section 301 + Section 122 surcharge + freight — so your resale price clears profit.

Dropshippers

De minimis is gone; every China-direct parcel now carries full duty and customers blame you for surprise fees.

Model the full duty stack per SKU and price shipping-inclusive before complaints start.

Temu import charges — common questions

Why is Temu charging import charges now?

In 2025 the US eliminated the $800 de minimis exemption for China-origin goods. Every Temu package shipped from China is now subject to customs duty, Section 301 tariffs and the 10% Section 122 import surcharge — regardless of value. Temu passes these charges to the buyer at checkout or on delivery.

How much is import duty on a Temu order?

It depends on the product's HS code. Typical Temu categories: clothing 16–32% combined duty, electronics accessories 0–25%+, toys 0–30%, jewelry 5–13.5% — plus Section 301 (7.5–25%) and the flat 10% Section 122 surcharge on China-origin goods. Use a landed cost calculator with the product type to get the exact figure.

Do I pay customs on Temu orders under $800?

Yes, if the goods ship from China. The $800 de minimis exemption no longer applies to China-origin shipments. Goods shipped from Temu's US warehouses have already cleared customs — duty was paid on import and is built into the price.

Can I avoid Temu import charges?

Not legally for China-direct shipments. Choosing items shipped from local (US/EU) warehouses avoids surprise charges because duty was already paid at the bulk-import stage. Undervaluing or mislabeling shipments is customs fraud.

Is it still cheaper to buy from Temu after tariffs?

Often yes, but margins narrowed sharply. A $20 clothing item can carry $6–10 in combined duty and fees. Calculate the true landed cost before assuming the listed price is the final price.
