U.S. Shipping Update — De Minimis Suspended (Aug 29, 2025)
Our warehouse is in Canada. As of August 29, 2025 at 12:01 a.m. ET, the U.S. has suspended the de minimis exemption that used to allow shipments up to $800 USD duty/tax-free.
What this means for your order
Duties & taxes now apply to most U.S. shipments, regardless of value.
These charges are set and collected by the carrier for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)—they do not go to EZOKO.
Assessment is based on when your package enters the U.S., not your order date.
What EZOKO is doing
We’re shipping via UPS Expedited or comparable FedEx services and covering brokerage/entry fees ourselves. (This does not remove duties or sales tax.)
We’re actively working on compliant ways to lower cross-border costs and will update this page as we improve.
A note to our U.S. angler community
We’re genuinely sorry for the added hassle. We value our U.S. customer-friends and your support means a lot to us. We’re hopeful that in the coming months, it becomes easier to exchange gear across the border. If anything’s unclear, chat with us on-site or reach us via the contact page—we’re here to help.
