WILL U.S. TARIFFS AFFECT MY ORDER?

UPDATED AUGUST 29TH, 2025

U.S. customers may be wondering how their order will be affected by the newly imposed trade tariffs. SHARP is committed to keeping our shipping experience smooth and providing as much clarity to our customers as possible. Read on and please reach out with any questions.

 

WILL I OWE DUTIES OR TAXES ON MY ORDER? 

All duties and state taxes are shown and collected at checkout after inputting your shipping address. There will be no additional surprise fees when your item crosses the border. 

 

WILL THERE BE SHIPPING DELAYS IN RECEIVING MY ORDER? 

There shouldn't be! Since SHARP collects and pays duties in advance, all our packages will arrive at the border as ‘Delivered Duty Paid’, or DDP. This ensures they swiftly pass through customs and continue on their journey to you without significant delays. Thus far, we have seen very minimal issues with border crossing thanks to this setup, but we do ask for your understanding if there are unexpected issues in the coming weeks. 

 

We can assure you that SHARP is staying atop of the evolving trade situation with the US. As changes take effect, we aim to keep customers informed, provide as much clarity as possible, and find the best solution to make our products accessible to our U.S. customers. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email us at info@sharpknifeshop.com.
