Import duties (Tariff) in the United States.

Since 10/17/25, eBay has been requiring Japanese sellers to pay US tariffs on behalf of a buyer in the US. I will be shipping with incoterms DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). So a buyer's US does not have to pay import tax at the point of customs clearance in the US. Due to this, I have been adjusting the shipping cost to US buyers to cover the tariff that I would prepay.

Shipping:

Economy shipping (ebaySpeed Pak economy or Japan post small packet) for  7-10 days

Expedite shipping (Fedex, UPS, DHL, or EMS Japan post) 5-7 days

Depending on where to ship, I will be using Fedex, UPS, DHL or EMS Japan Post by considering the destination or shipping dimensions/weight.

Return:

Unless an item listed ?Return accepted? in the listing, basically no return is accepted. Return cost is paid by a buyer unless an item is defective. To avoid showing vague item looking and condition, I try to take more high resolution photos. All photos are basically taken by me.

Duties for international buyers (Other than US):

As per the general understanding of international trade, a buyer as an importer is responsible for all the customs clearance and import duties and some other processing fees by customs and shipping carriers.

Questions for import duties, fees, etc:

Although I commented all import duties and fees are responsible by a buyer. But if you have any questions, I am happy to support you as far as I know. As I have been working for export business for many years and checking recent world trade situations on a daily basis. For buyers at my store, I regard that as my part of something like a service that I can help to answer your questions so that you can import without less stress and concerns.
