Amazon tariffs (import taxes) raise costs for sellers, often leading to higher consumer prices. Many businesses now source from low-tariff countries like Vietnam instead of China to protect margins.
Key Effects:
-
Sellers face steeper import fees, squeezing profits
-
Buyers pay more for electronics, clothing, and home goods
-
Some products disappear as sellers abandon unprofitable items
Smart Solutions:
✔ Use Amazon’s FBA duty calculator
✔ Source from domestic suppliers when possible
✔ Check eligibility for trade agreement exemptions
With potential policy changes ahead, staying informed helps sellers adapt. Strategic sourcing and logistics planning remain critical for success.
