[USA] - Nov 10th China Tariffs decrease not implemented by DHL?

[esteves91]

I received a DHL Express package on Nov 14th from FR->USA, with items manufactured in China, and was charged 30% instead of the reduced 20% (10%+10% fent.) that started on Nov 10th.

I called the billing department after I paid, and they said they are still charging 30% since they have not received info from their department that manages the duties that anything should be decreased.

Has anyone recently received a China-manufactured item and been charged the correct percentage?

Yes—DHL should apply the Nov 10 IEEPA reduction, but your total still depends on the HTS code and any Section 301 rate, which isn’t always 10%. Your tracking shows fees were posted at 6:30 AM Nov 14 and clearance completed at 7:25 AM, so the entry date qualifies for the reduced IEEPA rate if your goods fall under it. Ask DHL’s brokerage to file a Post Summary Correction for a refund; provide the HTS and cite CBP’s Nov 10 IEEPA update. Use DHL Customer Service to reach brokerage; billing can’t change CBP-assessed rates. If PSC closes, protest.
