Thank you for using tenso.com.

Due to the suspension of the de minimis exemption for imports valued at $800 or less to the United States, we will transition DHL service to a Duty Prepaid (DDP) basis for shipments to the United States and Puerto Rico starting at the date and time below.

While revisions to the Japan-U.S. tariff system are ongoing, the U.S. tariff structure remains highly uncertain. Therefore, to ensure customers can use our service with confidence at all times and to minimize the impact of potential subsequent tariff charges or customs clearance procedures, tenso.com will uniformly apply a prepaid 20% tariff rate based on the invoice amount.

Additionally, for ECMS, which has already transitioned to the DDP method as of August 22, 2025, the same prepaid tariff rate of 20% will apply from the same date and time.

Effective date:
August 28, 2025, 08:00 JST (August 27, 2025, 19:00 ET)

Changes:
・DHL
　1. Prepaid import tariff charges: 20% of invoice amount
　2. Prepaid customs clearance charges: added to international shipping fee
　3. No additional tariff payment required upon delivery

・ECMS
　1. Prepaid import tariff charges: 20% of invoice amount
　2. Prepaid customs clearance charges: added to international shipping fee
　3. No additional tariff payment required upon delivery
　4. Maximum purchase amount per shipment: increased from 800 USD to 2,500 USD

Japan Post has announced that, effective Wednesday, August 27, 2025, it will temporarily suspend the acceptance of mail items addressed to the United States.
https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/information/2025/0825_01.html

Furthermore, even parcels for which shipping procedures via Japan Post have been completed prior to the suspension are highly likely to be returned to Japan.
Therefore, if you wish to ship to the United States, we strongly recommend using DHL or ECMS instead.

In light of this situation, Tenso.com will also suspend the acceptance of shipments to the United States via Japan Post (EMS, AIR small packets, AIR international parcels, and Surface international parcels) from Tuesday, August 26, 2025.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this may cause and kindly ask for your understanding.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

The “De Minimis” exemption has allowed imports valued at USD 800 or less to enter duty-free in the United States. However, this exemption is scheduled to be suspended as of August 29, 2025. As a result, items valued at USD 800 or less, which were previously exempt from duties, are expected to become subject to customs duties.

With regard to applicable duty rates, based on the information currently available, with some exceptions, all products of Japanese origin imported into the United States are expected to be subject to a 15% tariff rate.

In light of this, shipments for which the shipping procedure is completed on or after 08:00 JST on August 27, 2025 (19:00 ET on August 26, 2025) are expected, as noted above, to likely require payment of customs duties upon receipt.

However, for ECMS shipments to the United States, we will update the service so that no separate customs duty payment is required.

Changes:
・An additional JPY 6,285 (includes customs clearance procedures and duties) will be added to the international shipping charge.
・No separate customs duty payment will be required.

Effective date:
・08:00 JST on August 22, 2025 (19:00 ET on August 21, 2025)

For customers concerned about the amount of customs duties upon arrival, we recommend using this shipping method.

Please note that these regulatory changes are subject to additional updates or changes in conditions. We will provide further announcements as new information becomes available.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause, and appreciate your understanding.
