Significant Decline in Postal Traffic to the U.S. Due to Tariffs

Recent reports indicate that postal traffic to the United States has plummeted by 80% following the cessation of exemptions on low-value parcels by the Trump administration. This drastic decrease has prompted 88 postal operators worldwide to suspend services to the U.S., with countries like India and Pakistan halting their mail services entirely amid escalating tariffs. The United Nations has echoed these concerns, highlighting the widespread impact on international postal services as countries scramble to adjust to new tariff regimes. This situation reflects the complexities and implications of trade policies on global communication and commerce.
