The U.S. is currently charging a 30% tariff on most goods coming from China, down from the 145% tariffs President Donald Trump had imposed in the aftermath of his April 2 “Liberation Day” announcement. Online retailers like Temu and Shein have already been hit with higher prices, but the question on every American consumer’s mind right now is when we’ll start to see those higher prices reflected at our local stores. The answer, according to Walmart, is at the end of May. Walmart CEO Doug McMill

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority Update, May 13, 2025 (5:30 AM ET): The situation remains volatile, as the Trump administration revealed that smaller shipments are excluded from the new trade agreement (via Axios). That means that orders previously duty-free due to the de minimis exemption were subject to a higher 120% rate. However, another executive order was issued late on Monday, reducing that rate to 54% or $100 per postal item. This is still significantly higher than the rate on other

This new agreement doesn’t change the removal of the de minimis exception on May 2nd, which closed the tariff loophole that allowed businesses like Temu and Shein to import low-value goods into the US without paying any duties at all.
