Shipping to the US

New Regulation – Effective August 29, 2025
The U.S. government has suspended the de minimis exemption for international shipments. This means that all commercial imports, including those valued at $800 or less, are now subject to duties and taxes.

Good News!
Despite what you may have heard in the news, our service to the U.S. is not interrupted. Our trusted shipping partner, FedEx, continues to deliver smoothly, with no delays. In fact, in most cases, your order arrives the very next day!

The only change (unfortunately!) is that import fees and duties now need to be paid. But here’s the silver lining: even with these additional costs, we remain a much cheaper alternative compared to local options.

The average customs fee we see—based on customer feedback—ranges from 7% to 12% of your order value. For example, on a USD 100 order, the fee is typically USD 7–12, invoiced directly by FedEx.

Please note this is an estimate: actual fees vary by item, and we can’t guarantee or assume responsibility for the final amount.

FedEx U.S. import charges for shipments from Europe vary depending on the service, package details, and applicable import duties. These typically include:

U.S. Inbound Processing Fee

A €1.35 fee applied to all U.S. import shipments for customs clearance processing (effective May 2025).

Import Duties and Taxes

Determined by the U.S. government based on the product type, quantity, and its CIF value (Cost, Insurance, and Freight).

Brokerage Fees

A possible fee for FedEx’s service in paying duties and taxes on your behalf to speed up delivery.

Total Fees

Based on customer's feedback, the average total markup fees additionally to the order value, are between 7% and 10% of the order value.

Attention: 

Thank you so much for your support!
 

At the moment, we’re unfortunately not able to ship to Illinois due to tax regulations. Our sincere apologies for this.
 

We are close to reaching the sales threshold in Illinois that would require us to collect and remit local taxes. While we are working on setting up the proper tax structure in the US, we’re not fully ready yet. This is a very complex process, as we need to register separately in all states, each with its own thresholds and tax rules. As you can imagine, this is both time-consuming and extremely costly.
 

To avoid any risk of penalties, we’ve had to temporarily stop accepting orders from Illinois. I’m truly sorry for the inconvenience this causes and hope we’ll be able to serve you there soon.
