  • India’s Department of Posts suspends most postal services to the United States from August 25.
  • The suspension follows the US Executive Order Number 14324 that removes the duty-free exemption for goods valued up to 800 US dollars.
  • All postal shipments to the US will now face customs duties except gifts valued up to 100 US dollars.
  • US Customs and Border Protection requires carriers to collect duties, but unclear guidelines have caused air carriers to refuse postal consignments.
  • The Department of Posts will continue accepting letters, documents, and exempt gifts while working to resolve the issue.
