Shipments to USA includes duties, tariffs and taxes!

Japan-USA Tariff Update
You may have heard about the new import duties affecting products coming from Japan. Currently, most Japanese products arriving in the United States face a tariff of 15% or higher—a significant jump compared to what was previously in place. On top of that, the $800 threshold that used to allow smaller packages to arrive duty-free has been removed, which means every commercial shipment now incurs these tariffs and fees. These policy shifts are part of wider trade regulation updates that our company has no authority over.

 

86WORX promise a seamless Shopping from our Japan warehouse to your USA address
Given that most of our customers are based in the United States, we've teamed up with international shipping and customs specialists to make your shopping experience as smooth as possible. Through strategies like consolidated shipments, distributing from our U.S.-based warehouses, and other logistical approaches, we're able to absorb the cost of tariffs, duties, and taxes on the majority of orders.

We're committed to transparent pricing for all our US customers.

 

Here's how it works:

 

Most Products Already Include Everything
The majority of items on our site now include all duties, tariffs, and taxes for delivery to any US destination. The price you see is the final price you pay.

 

We're Updating Prices Daily
We're currently updating our entire catalog product-by-product to include all customs fees in the displayed price. This process is ongoing.

 

If Your Product Isn't Updated Yet
If the product you order doesn't yet include duties, tariffs, and taxes in the listed price, here's what happens:

  • We'll calculate the exact total including all fees
  • We'll email you with the extra amount to include tariffs, duties & taxes
  • You can approve the extra fee or cancel with absolutely no fees or obligations

 

Shipping Method Considerations
Since De Minimis rule has been abolished, Japan Post (cost effective option) has stopped service to USA and we need to use courier service (FedEx, UPS, or DHL). If some products require extra payment due to the shipping price difference, here's what will happen:

  • We'll calculate the exact total including all fees
  • We'll email you with the extra amount to that include shipping upgrade, tariffs, duties & taxes
  • You can approve the extra fee or cancel with absolutely no fees or obligations

 

Additional Note for Orders Under $100
For lower-value orders (under $100 USD), courier services like FedEx, UPS, and DHL have higher base shipping costs and fixed fees for duty prepaid processing. In these cases, we may need to request an additional shipping fee to cover these costs. We'll always notify you of any additional fees before processing your order.

 

Exciting Future Developments
We're currently developing a dedicated USA orders page (coming soon!) that will display all prices inclusive of shipping, duties, and taxes. This new feature will provide you with complete pricing transparency and eliminate any surprises during the checkout process. 

 

Our Guarantee
While many of our competitors may let American customers get surprised by unexpected fees at delivery, we're committed to standing out by providing you with a completely seamless experience. We're working tirelessly to finish our dedicated USA orders page.

No order ships to the USA without DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) and taxes included. You will never receive an unexpected bill when your package arrives. Everything is handled upfront, with full transparency.

This policy applies to all orders placed and shipped on or after September 1st, 2025 with US-bound destination.
