- DHL is resuming shipments worth over $800 to US consumers after a temporary suspension.
- The pause followed the introduction of new customs rules under Trump's tariffs.
- DHL engaged in "constructive dialogue" with US authorities before resuming these shipments.
Delivery giant DHL is resuming its shipments worth over $800 to American consumers, the German firm said on Monday.
This follows an announcement from the company earlier this month that it would temporarily suspend the delivery of packages from all other countries to the US valued at more than $800 from April 21, down from the previous limit of $2,500.
The pause took effect after President Donald Trump introduced more stringent customs rules under his new tariffs framework.
A shift in customs enforcement lowered the threshold for simplified import procedures starting from April 5. Now, shipments worth over $800 require formal entry processing.
"Adjustments to US customs regulations will allow DHL to resume accepting B2C shipments with a declared value exceeding $800 into the US," it said in a statement on Monday.
DHL said it had a "constructive dialogue" with US authorities before resuming the shipments, which is effective immediately.
Business-to-business deliveries were not affected by the threshold introduced.
