Tariff Information (USA)
Last updated: March 11, 2026
U.S. Shipping & Import Duties
We offer two shipping methods to the United States.
Import charges depend on the shipping option selected at checkout.
Most U.S. orders ship with tariffs included, so there are no additional charges upon delivery.
⸻
🇺🇸 Option 1: SpeedPAK (Orange Connex) — Tariffs Included
We offer SpeedPAK Economy (Orange Connex) with tariff-inclusive pricing for most U.S. orders.
Standard checkout availability
• Available automatically at checkout for packages up to 8 kg
• U.S. import duties and tariffs are included in the shipping price
• No additional tariff bill upon delivery
• Estimated delivery time: about 8 days
• Final delivery handled by USPS
This option provides a predictable total cost and avoids surprise import charges.
Orders Between 8 kg – 25 kg
SpeedPAK can ship packages up to 25 kg, but orders above 8 kg require a custom shipping quote.
If your order exceeds 8 kg, please contact us before purchasing.

🚚 Option 2: DHL Express — Delivered at Place (DAP)
Some shipments (urgent, oversized, or customer preference) are sent via DHL Express.
DHL shipments are sent under Delivered at Place (DAP) terms (also known as DDU).
What this means
At checkout you pay:
• Item price
• Shipping
However, the following are not included in the DHL shipping price:
• U.S. import duties or tariffs
• Customs brokerage or clearance fees
• Import processing fees charged by the carrier
DHL or U.S. Customs may contact you before delivery to collect these charges.
These charges must be paid in order to receive the shipment.
DHL may also charge customs clearance or brokerage fees.
These fees are determined by U.S. Customs and DHL, not by Chidori Vintage.
If you would like a rough estimate before ordering, please contact us.
