Why are prices higher for China-origin items shipped to the United States compared to other locations?Updated 21 days ago

Prices for shipments to the United States may vary due to current U.S. trade regulations (Section 301), which impose different tariff rates depending on the country of origin of the product.

For example, products manufactured in China or Hong Kong are subject to additional tariffs, resulting in higher prices compared to the same items shipped to other regions. In contrast, items made in Japan typically see minimal price differences.

These price adjustments reflect the required compliance with local trade laws and ensure transparent pricing based on the shipping destination and product origin.
