Good News:  Charms Of Light Restarts Shipping to the U.S.

After Tariff Pause
 

A Message to Our Cherished U.S. Community

I am absolutely delighted to share some bright news:  Charms Of Light has resumed shipping to the United States!

After weeks of uncertainty following the new U.S. tariffs, I have secured a tariff-compliant delivery option that allows me to continue sending my creations across the Atlantic — without the confusion and frustration that initially forced me to pause.

A Quick Recap:  Why We Paused

Earlier this year, the U.S. government introduced sweeping new import tariffs:

• A 10% universal tariff on nearly all imports.
• The elimination of the de minimis exemption (previously allowing goods under $800 duty-free), leading to unpredictable and sometimes extreme duties of up to 145%.
• Sudden disruptions, with some postal carriers halting U.S. deliveries altogether.

These changes left many small businesses, including Charms Of Light, unable to guarantee fair, reliable, and transparent delivery to U.S. customers.

How We’re Moving Forward

Now, thanks to new tariff-compliant delivery partners, I can once again ship to the U.S. with confidence.  Here’s what this means for you:

• Reliable Delivery:  Parcels are fully customs-compliant, reducing delays.
• Transparent Pricing:  All duties and tariffs are calculated up front, so there are no unexpected fees upon arrival.
• Peace of Mind:  You can continue ordering your favourite Charms Of Light pieces knowing they’ll reach you safely and smoothly.

Why This Matters

For me, shipping is about more than logistics — it’s about connection.  Each order carries with it the energy, care, and intention of something handmade.  The thought of being cut off from my U.S. family indefinitely was painful, but this new solution means I can once again share that light across borders.

A Thank You From the Heart

To my U.S. customers:  thank you for your patience, understanding, and unwavering support during this pause.  Your encouragement reminded me why I do what I do.

I am thrilled to once again send you the jewellery and crystals that bring beauty and healing into your lives.

With gratitude and excitement,

Caryl ♥
