Hello,

Significant changes are coming to global tariffs that may affect how packages move between countries. Due to uncertainty around tariffs, many global mail carriers have suspended delivery to the United States.

We now provide the option for sellers to temporarily disable merch sales from non-US shipping origins to the US. This can be controlled per origin in Edit Profile > Physical Goods > Shipping from. We strongly encourage sellers to communicate directly with your US buyers during this sensitive time. For more guidance, please head to our help center.

If you plan to send merch from outside the US into the US, here are a few key things to consider:
  • Tariffs only apply to physical merchandise, not to digital sales.
  • Currently, there is an exception for “informational media” coming into the United States. That includes vinyl records, CDs, cassettes, books, sheet music, and other items. Despite this exception, many global mail carriers have suspended shipments to the United States without regard to the contents of the package.
  • Apparel and other goods shipped to the United States ARE subject to tariffs (shirts, hoodies, hats, totes, etc.).
