Important Notice: Changes to U.S. Import Duties and Taxes
Thank you for shopping with us.
Please be advised that following recent updates to U.S. trade policy, a new 10% Emergency Import Surcharge has been implemented for all goods imported into the United States, effective February 24, 2026.
While we make every effort to ship orders with duties prepaid (DDP), the current fluidity of U.S. customs regulations means that additional charges may occasionally be requested by customs authorities or delivery carriers at the time of delivery.
Please understand that these charges are mandated by U.S. federal law and are beyond our control. To ensure the successful delivery of your package, compliance with these local regulations and payment of any assessed duties may be required.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we navigate these changes to bring you the finest Japanese tea.
