De Minimis Is Gone. What Can You Do Now?
The e-commerce world has changed overnight. With the elimination of the De Minimis rule, a regulation that allowed over 90% of incoming U.S. shipments to enter duty-free, businesses shipping even low-value goods now face a dramatically different landscape. Join customs and supply chain expert Cindy Allen, who was part of creating the De Minimis, as she breaks down exactly what the end of it means for your business and what practical steps importers and exporters can take next. This 1-hour webinar will cover:
- The new avalanche of tariffs and customs duties, including how multiple tariffs can stack, making compliance more costly and challenging than ever.
- The reality that customs compliance is now a major barrier for e-sellers, especially small businesses without deep legal or logistics resources, directly impacting profitability.
- The rise of new business models like B2B2C, and how e-commerce companies are adapting to survive and thrive in a post–De Minimis world.
- A look at why small businesses face extra hurdles and what resources or experts they should seek out for customs and compliance guidance.
- What the future holds, and where successful e-commerce businesses can go from here.
