India to resume postal services to US from 15 October - 'Tariffs will remain unchanged'

The Indian government has decided to resume postal services to the United States from tomorrow, 15 October, after the same was suspended on 22 August, 2025.

“Postal services to the USA were earlier suspended through Office Memorandum dated 22 August 2025, following Executive Order 14324 issued by the U.S. Administration, which suspended the de minimis treatment for all postal shipments. The suspension was necessitated by new regulatory requirements introduced by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for the collection and remittance of import duties,” the Ministry of Communications said in a press release.

After extensive system development, coordination with CBP-approved Qualified Parties, and successful operational trials in the Delhi and Maharashtra Circles, India Post has now established a compliant mechanism for Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) processing, as per the communication.

“Department of Posts will not levy any additional charges on customers for facilitating DDP and Qualified Party services,” it also noted.
