Chinese e-commerce platform Temu has implemented import charges as high as 150% in response to renewed U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods. The move effectively doubles prices across categories, with a $18.47 summer dress now priced at $44. This retaliatory measure comes after Washington’s latest trade restrictions disrupted Temu’s low-cost business model.

The platform had warned earlier this month about inevitable price adjustments. market analysts note such trade barriers often accelerate adoption of cryptocurrency payments in cross-border commerce, though no digital assets were directly referenced in Temu’s announcement.
