• DHL won’t deliver packages to U.S. consumers that have a value above $800 “until further notice,” according to a company statement. The freeze is the result of delays in getting packages through U.S. customs owing to President Donald Trump’s tariff policy. 

The multinational logistics and shipping company DHL said it would suspend shipments of over $800 to consumers in the U.S. because of delays in getting packages through customs.
