Jlcpcb and tariffs

I just checked by adding a recent order to may cart. Tariff fee shows up for all shipping methods but global standard direct line.

Merchandise: $38.58
Shipping Estimate: $26.56
Customs Duties and Taxes: $67.52 (Effective rate = 175%)

Global Standard Direct Line note: Carriage paid to a named destination. Duty, tax, and the carrier’s clearance handling fee collected before or at the time of delivery at the destination.
 
Rumor mill is saying there will be some scaling back on the 145% soon. BigBox CEOs are giving the admin a riot act.
 

Important Notice: Logistics Policy Updates due to the US’s tariff on China

Apr 24, 2025

US Tariff Timeline:

  • February 4, 2025: U.S. President Donald Trump imposed 10% tariffs on all Chinese imports
  • March 3, 2025: The US levied an additional 10% tariff on China, leading to a total of 20% tariffs
  • April 5, 2025: The US's 10% reciprocal tariff went into effect and will impose 34% reciprocal tariffs on April 9
  • April 9, 2025: The US increased the reciprocal tariffs from 34% to 84%
  • April 10, 2025: The US again raised the reciprocal tariffs on Chinese goods to 125%
Taking into account the additional tariff and reciprocal tariffs, the total amounts to 145%.

Due to the fluctuating customs duty rate (145%~175%), we will collect taxes from customers in advance based on the highest rate of 175%. After receiving the tax bill from the logistics provider, any excess will be refunded, and any shortfall will be charged accordingly.
The following adjustments have been made:


Effective from 20:20 on April 22nd(GMT+8), B2C customers placing orders destined for the United States are required to choose DDP when selecting the shipping method and prepay 175% of the order value as taxes.

I ordered boards last week from PCBWay which haven't arrived yet:

Of course, found a few missing components and tried to order an updated version of the same board today and this is what the checkout looks like.

Imagine the hit to small businesses across the country... murca.
 
In Europe we have Euro circuits. I hope I did the calculation right but just one board is 135 euro. No tarrifs, just the board. I dont know how this tarrifs are effecting pricing for Europe though.
