US Customs Guide
The US de minimis threshold is $800 — meaning packages valued under $800 generally pass through customs without duties. However, CBP still inspects packages randomly. To minimize risk, keep declarations realistic and avoid extremely low values.
Important: Replica goods are technically subject to seizure if inspected. While seizure rates are low for small personal orders, express shipping lines have better track records for smooth clearance than budget postal services.
Recommended Strategy for USA
For most US shoppers, we recommend DHL Express or UPS Expedited for orders over $200. The speed and customs reliability justify the cost. For smaller orders under $100, EMS offers a good balance of cost and speed.
