Import Duties and Customs Costs for U.S. Customers
When you order shoes from LointsofHolland.com and ship them to the United States, your order may be subject to U.S. import duties and taxes.
As of August 29, 2025, the “de minimis” exemption for packages valued under USD 800 no longer applies. This means that all shipments to the U.S. can be charged customs duties and processing fees.
To avoid unexpected costs upon delivery, we now handle this for you:
- We calculate the applicable import duties and taxes during checkout.
- These amounts are charged to you together with your order total.
- We then pay the import duties and taxes on your behalf to the U.S. government, via our shipping partner (FedEx).
You therefore should not receive additional duty or tax bills from FedEx or U.S. Customs at the time of delivery in normal circumstances.
We will continue to:
- Provide all correct customs information and documentation on your parcel, as we have always done.
- Cover the standard processing/handling fees for customs clearance charged by our courier (FedEx).
