iCustoms has unveiled a powerful end-to-end solution to address the new US customs clearance rules impacting parcels under $800.
A major shift in US import rules, including the end of the de minimis exemption, has triggered an unprecedented collapse in postal traffic, with shipments into the US plunging by over 80%.
According to the Universal Postal Union (UPU), 88 operators have already suspended service, putting over 1 billion parcels at risk and sending shockwaves across international delivery networks. Experts warn this disruption is not a short-term issue but a long-term challenge for global trade
“Postal companies and e-commerce businesses are facing unprecedented delays and compliance hurdles,” said Adnan Zaheer , CEO at iCustoms. “Our end-to-end solution makes it easy for parcels to clear U.S. customs, helping businesses keep deliveries on track and customers happy.”
iCustoms is one of the few companies worldwide offering a complete, integrated platform that manages low value US parcels customs compliance from start to finish.
iCustoms handles every step of the customs process, from pre-shipment to post-delivery. Using parcel details, product description, and recipient information submitted via API, CSV, or web portal, the platform calculates taxes and duties, screens for restricted goods and denied parties, and manages payments and required submissions to CBP.
“With US parcel imports down and no quick resolution in sight, businesses face a long-term disruption and urgently need a reliable solution,” added Zaheer. “We help postal and e-commerce companies cut through the red tape and keep goods flowing.”
With an easy-to-integrate solution, iCustoms empowers postal operators and e-commerce businesses to adapt quickly, stay compliant, and keep global trade moving no matter how regulations change.
