USPS and China Shipping: What You Need to Know About Recent Changes

What Happened with USPS and China Shipments?

If you’ve been scrolling through your feed lately, you may have caught wind of the USPS suspension that sent a ripple of concern through online shoppers. On February 4, 2025, the United States Postal Service (USPS) announced a temporary suspension of packages from China and Hong Kong. This unexpected move came right after new U.S. tariffs and shifting import policies were introduced, sparking confusion for businesses and customers alike.

But here’s the good news: just one day later, USPS lifted the suspension, and shipments resumed as normal. While the scare was brief, it left many wondering—could this happen again? And more importantly, what does this mean for your Kawaii Stop orders?

We’ve got you covered! Let’s dive into how these changes might affect your shopping experience and what we’re doing to keep things smooth and stress-free. 💖

🚀 Will This Affect Your Kawaii Stop Orders?

Let’s cut to the chase: No, your Kawaii Stop orders are not in danger! 🎉 Your favorite kawaii fashion and accessories are still making their way to your doorstep.

But, with these recent USPS announcements and policy shifts, there are a few things you should know:

💰 Potential Price Increases

With the elimination of the “de minimis” rule (which previously allowed goods under $800 to enter the U.S. duty-free), some import fees may rise. This could cause a ripple effect on shipping and product costs across many retailers—not just us. But don’t worry, we’re doing our best to keep prices as low as possible for you!

⏳ Processing Time Adjustments

While shipping is fully operational, changes in customs procedures or import policies might cause slight delays in processing and shipping times. We’re keeping a close eye on everything to minimize these impacts.

📦 More Shipping Flexibility

We’re not putting all our eggs in one basket! If needed, we’ll work with alternative shipping partners to make sure your kawaii goodies arrive without a hitch. Whether that means adjusting our logistics routes or speeding up warehouse processes, we’ve got your back!
