OOPBUY CUSTOMS USA
Do not plan a 2026 US parcel with the old $800 assumption.
CBP says duty-free treatment for low-value shipments from all countries was suspended effective August 29, 2025. Products of China also lost the former de minimis treatment earlier in 2025. Check classification, origin, carrier handling and current fees before shipping.

What changed
Older Oopbuy guides often repeat a blanket $800 duty-free threshold. That is no longer a safe planning rule. Current CBP guidance says the broad low-value duty waiver was suspended, and China-origin goods have separate published treatment.
