Temu to stop selling goods from China directly to US customers
- On May 2, 2025, Chinese e-commerce platform Temu announced it would stop shipping goods directly from China to U.S. Customers, switching to U.S.-based sellers fulfillment.
- This change follows the expiration of a key U.S. Tariff exemption known as the de minimis rule, which previously allowed duty-free imports of goods under $800 from China.
- Temu began overhauling its supply chain last year by urging factories to bulk ship items to U.S. Warehouses and raising prices amid growing U.S. Regulatory scrutiny.
- A Temu spokesperson said Temu now fulfills all U.S. Orders from domestic sellers and warehouses to ensure compliance and faster delivery, while users report many items are out of stock locally.
- This shift pressures Temu's low-price model reliant on direct China-to-U.S. Shipments, suggesting U.S. Consumers may face higher costs and potential product shortages.
