Shein and Temu Raise Prices for U.S. Buyers Amid New Tariff Rules

The Trump administration’s decision to impose high import duties on Chinese goods has ended the "de minimis" exemption, which previously allowed items worth $800 or less to enter the U.S. tariff-free. Starting May 2, these goods will face full tariff enforcement, with additional duties phased in over subsequent months.

Major e-commerce platforms Shein and Temu, which relied on the exemption to offer low-cost goods, have responded with aggressive price hikes. U.S. consumers, accustomed to bargain deals, now confront significantly higher costs as these companies adapt to the new regulatory landscape.
