[Information] To Our U.S. Customers – Important Notice About Tariffs and Shipping Suspension of China-Made Products

---

We’d like to share an important update regarding the recent U.S. tariff changes and how we will be responding.

🛃 Summary of the Policy Change

U.S. customers could import goods under $800 per day without being taxed, under the De Minimis rule.This rule is still valid for shipments from Japan.

However, starting May 2, 2025, this exemption will no longer apply to China-made products, regardless of the shipping country. Unfortunately, many of our main items—such as Tamagotchi, Digimon, and other electronic toys from Bandai Japan and Takara Tomy Japan etc.. are manufactured in China, and therefore fall under this new policy.

❓ What Does This Mean for You?

From May 2 onward, all China-made products may be taxed regardless of their value. Technically, even small personal-use imports could be taxed.

That said, it remains unclear how strictly this will be enforced, especially for small, personal orders. However, the current tariff rate on China-made products is extremely high (145%), and combined with FedEx fees ($10–30), it may be very difficult for customers to cover the costs if applied. We anticipate many shipping issues if this goes into full effect.

🚫 Our Temporary Shipping Suspension

Due to this uncertainty and the risk of unexpected high charges:

• We will temporarily suspend all shipments of China-made products to the U.S. starting April 24 2025, unless there are any changes to the rules or regulations moving forward.

• If the situation changes or the policy is clarified in a way that allows for safe and predictable shipping, we will resume sales and update you.

• If we receive an order from a U.S. customer that includes even one China-made item,we will hold the order and contact you. If the order contains only China-made items, it will be automatically canceled.

---

📦 What Can You Still Buy?

• The country of origin is listed at the end of the product name or title.

• If the item is not made in China, the $800 De Minimis rule still applies.
  These products can still be shipped as usual without additional tax.

• You can see all items "excepting [Made in China]" :  
  "Menu>Store>excepting "[Made in China]"

💔 A Message from the JYWTMGC Team

The end of the De Minimis rule for China-made products was one of the outcomes we sincerely hoped would never come. Sadly, it has become reality...We considered various options to continue sales, but unfortunately, we have not found a solution at this time. It's truly disappointing.

We’ve been proudly serving customers in the U.S. for over 12 years, and we are incredibly thankful for your love and support. We truly hope that we’ll be able to serve you again. Thank you so much for everything!
