• Swiss Post will stop accepting parcels bound for the United States starting August 26, 2025.
• New US customs rules require every package, regardless of size or value, to be declared and cleared.
• Letters, documents, and express deliveries are exempt from the suspension.
• The regulatory change follows the Trump administration's abolition of the US$800 duty-free allowance.
