In this special emergency episode of This Week in E-Commerce, Mal Chia and Alex Ross are joined by Justin Irvine (The Aggregate Co) to break down the seismic news shaking Australian retail: the end of the U.S. de minimis exemption — with just 30 days’ notice.Previously, parcels under $800 could enter the U.S. tariff-free.
