Check it out and let me know if this will mess up our orders. Haven’t seen any posts on this yet and people need to be aware before ordering. Here is a copy and paste from business insider
•Hongkong Post temporarily halted the delivery of goods from the US, effective Tuesday (4/15/25)
•The service said in a release that the US was "bullying and imposing tariffs abusively."
•Parcels containing only documents will not be affected

Literally nothing ever happens
Looks like all the news outlets are reporting packages headed to the US are being blocked. So yeah, could have big consequences...
Not you personally but You guys are fine. Unless you yourself is importing multiple 48' foot containers then you will live. They been telling you big consequences since first tarrif long ago. We all seem to be eating good. DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE! Unless at least ONE person here has a real story of them not being able to get milk or bread for their starving kids or paid $50 for one egg then stop the "could" "may" "i heard" "i read" there's going to be consequences and recession and shortages then please everyone SHUT THE HELL UP!
TELL YOUR OWN EXPERIENCES HERE NOT WHAT SOMEONE SAID!
I’m pretty dumb , are the tariffs going to affect international sources shipping to America ?
Depends on a lot of things, and I clearly don't have any insider knowledge on it haha. Clearly these tariff issues come and go as part of the overall politics. Without getting into any of that, what the facts are, as of now, is that HK is not going to process and ship out any packages meant to ship by sea, effective immediately.
Air shipment, they say they will stop processing and sending, as of April 27.
Of course, things could change 5 minutes from now. It's a huge bargaining / blinking process on each side, and we can discuss that in another forum haha. But perhaps, depending on how your preferred source ships internationally, if you're considering an international order, maybe place it now, rather than in May? I don't know. Better safe that sorry? After all, HK international airport is a common intermediate for many shipments from China.
Good to know my man , appreciate it !
Answer is it hasnt yet. But you will get all the speculations saying we are screwed. Ill believe it when i see it.
Appreciate it bro. I pretty much live by the nothing ever happens chud , but this issue hits close to home so I’m hoping it burns out soon
They arent telling you that 72 countries already agreed to drop their tatiffs that they have been charging us for years if we drop their new tariffs. Win Win! Mexico already agreed a solution. Now just China but there are other options like taiwan we can import. Plus most manufacturers have already found a way around it oile shipping to third party country first. Also if a vendor hasnt stocked up in the 3 months warning deadline so they have the stock here already do you really want to buy off someone so incompetent anyway? 99% of our fears never come true. I could be wrong but im not the coulda shoulda woulda kind of guy and freak out before it happens
Yeah bro I’ve seen videos of a past presidents praising tariffs and how they’re a good thing but then when our current president does it everyone freaks out lol. Appreciate the explanation!
Who here in the US is shipping TO hong kong!? Thats what your post says, right?
You will be fine. Its Hong Kong Post only
Dont believe the hype!
Oh shit I read it wrong and freaked me out. I thought it said China wasn’t going to ship anything to the US through their postal service. Thanks for the clarification
And don't listen to CNN
You know you’re winning when they’re using their top reporters (activist) to cover an alleged unconstitutional deportation of a verified MS13 gang member back to El Salvador. Oh yea eggs too
All propaganda.
