Trump’s tariffs also targeted a trade provision that helped burn the explosive growth of budget online dealers, including TEMU. The orders against China, Canada and Mexico all stop a trade exemption, known as “de minimis”, which allows exporters to send packages worth less than $ 800 to the US duty free.

PDD Holdings-owned Temu and Alibaba’s AliExpress may no longer be able to take advantage of the loophole to sell cheap clothes, household items and electronics.
