USA Import Duties & Tariffs

President Trump has brought into effect reciprocal tariffs which apply to all shipments entering the USA from August 29th 2025 onwards.

This means that taxes and duties will now be payable on all orders from My Breeches shipped to the USA. We understand this a concerning new system, and rest-assured we are doing our best to stay educated and updated as the situation unfolds. We are here to help you, and encourage you contact us with any questions or concerns you may have. 

Currently we have three shipping options for USA customers:

DHL Premium Delivery DAP available at checkout, taxes payable to DHL at import.

DHL Premium Delivery DDP - available on request.

Royal Mail/ USPS Economy Delivery DDP - taxes payable at checkout (this service will be launching ASAP, we in the process of integrating a duties calculator.

DDP meaning: Delivery Duties Paid - all additional landing costs are collected upfront from the customer and we pay the duties on their behalf.

DAP meaning: Delivered At Place - all additional landing costs are payable by the customer directly to DHL at import. We have no involvement in the process. 

As for the rate of tariff charged, this is calculated based on the cost of the goods and the country where the goods are manufactured, not the shipment country of origin, so this will vary for each order and for different items. For economy shipments, as we understand it there are no additional charges, DHL do charge some additional processing fees.
