The U.S. Court of International Trade upheld President Trump's authority to eliminate the 'de minimis' exemption allowing goods under $800 to enter the U.S. duty free, supporting tariff revenue increases while rejecting a legal challenge.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Tariff enforcement just got stricter with the no-duty exemption gone. You selling imported goods into the US must adjust pricing and compliance immediately or lose access to this market.
