美國郵政恢復接受中港郵件 撤銷暫停決定
美國郵政服務（USPS）於週三宣布，將恢復接受來自中國和香港的郵件和包裹，撤銷了僅數小時前暫停此類遞送的決定。最初的暫停決定是在美國總統唐納德·特朗普對所有從中國進口的商品徵收10%關稅並停止「最低限度」貿易漏洞後作出的，該漏洞允許價值低於800美元的包裹免稅進入美國。這一漏洞已被中國電子商務公司如Temu和Shein廣泛使用，這些公司直接向美國消費者運送低成本商品。
USPS表示，正在與美國海關及邊境保護局（CBP）密切合作，實施一種高效機制來徵收新關稅，同時盡量減少對包裹遞送的干擾。該機構強調，這一變更立即生效。暫停和隨後的撤銷突顯了全球遞送系統在適應美國貿易政策突然變化時所面臨的挑戰。
最低限度規則在2016年從200美元提高到800美元，促進了低價值貨物的激增，僅在2024年就處理了超過13億個此類包裹。批評者認為，這一漏洞使得包括芬太尼在內的非法商品進入美國。然而，它也是電子商務業務的基石，特別是那些總部位於中國的公司。特朗普政府終止最低限度豁免的決定預計將對中國在線零售商產生重大影響，這些零售商依賴這一規定向美國消費者提供具有競爭力的產品。
這一舉措突顯了美中貿易關係中的廣泛緊張局勢，以及對大量小包裹徵收新關稅的複雜性。分析師警告說，增加的審查和關稅徵收過程可能會給USPS帶來物流挑戰，並延遲遞送。
