Today I can see this message when tracking one of my last shipments to the USA:

Th, 21.08.2025, 12:40, Newark Liberty International Airport, United States
The aircraft has landed at the airport.

Arrival at airport
Destination country/region: United States
Th, 21.08.2025, 12:40 hours

Recipient:
XXXXXX

NOTE: Return due to temporary suspension of postal shipments to the USA because
of changed customs regulations.

I shipped it on August 18, long before Trump Tax will come into effect (August
29).
What to do? My customer is upset too! Please help!

Hey buddy,

Can't help there... but I was looking if Bricklink had set up those tariffs
to be included in the sales like their local state taxes are right now...

Thanks for posting this, I'll just close sales to the USA for now.

Until this nightmare gets resolved.

I guess they will return everything that gets in the US because they'll be
flooded with collecting tariffs from recipients for a while!

Offer a refund or that you can ship it later but that they will need to pay the
tariff.
