The move by Switzerland’s national postal service will take effect from August 26, according to a statement. It follows President Donald Trump’s elimination of a tariff loophole for so-called “de minimis” merchandise. Such packages, with a retail value of no more than $800, will cease to be exempted from August 29, according to a White House fact sheet.
