USA Tariff Update

As many of you may have seen in recent news, the United States has changed its import regulations by removing the long-standing de minimis threshold (previously allowing parcels under USD $800 to enter duty-free).

From 29 August 2025, most parcels shipped from overseas into the USA are now subject to new customs clearance procedures, the specific details for which are yet to be confirmed.

What This Means for our American Customers...

Inspirations Magazine Print Subscription | NO CHANGE

The good news is your print subscription to Inspirations magazine is unaffected. We use a fulfilment centre in California to ship subscriber copies from within the USA, tariff free, so your subscriber copy of Inspirations Issue #128 is right on schedule and will be on its way to you in a few short weeks.

Online Orders for Digital Products | NO CHANGE

You can continue to purchase any of our digital products exactly as before and these remain tariff free.

Online Orders Shipping from USA Warehouse | NO CHANGE

At our USA warehouse in California, we have a small selection of Inspirations magazines and books that you can order online. This means if you place an order with ONLY PRODUCTS that are available in our USA WAREHOUSE, we can ship them to you without delay and without any tariffs.

See below for a complete list of eligible products.

Please note: orders containing products not listed below, including kits and wares, ship from Australia.

Online Orders Shipping from Australia to USA | TEMPORARILY ON HOLD

Australia Post - the carrier we currently use for the majority of online orders - has announced that they have suspended deliveries to the USA until further notice. As a result, we are currently unable to ship any online orders for physical products from Australia to the USA.

We understand how important it is for our US customers to secure products that may have limited availability. For this reason, our website will continue to accept all online orders from US customers. Orders containing products shipped from Australia will remain on hold until we are able to ship them.

It is our hope this is a short term, temporary problem which will be resolved in the coming weeks if not days (no promises though!).
