Dear Artisan & Artist Community,
We wanted to take a moment to inform you of some recent changes that may affect your shopping experience with us. On April 9 (U.S. time), the Trump administration announced a temporary 10% import duty on goods imported from Japan to the United States. This change will remain in effect for a period of 90 days.
A Few Details to Keep in Mind
If the total value of your order—including both the products and shipping—does not exceed $800 USD, you may not be required to pay the import duty. If you are considering placing a larger order, here’s a suggestion to make the process smoother:
If you place separate orders, each with a value of just over $300 USD but under $800 USD, you can avoid the extra fees, while still enjoying the benefits of free shipping.
At Artisan & Artist, we understand that changes to international trade regulations can sometimes feel complex. Please rest assured, we are carefully monitoring these developments and will continue to keep you informed, so you can continue to shop with confidence.
Our Gratitude to You
We are always grateful for the continued support and trust you place in us. Whether you are a seasoned photographer, a makeup artist, or someone who appreciates high-quality accessories, we sincerely thank you for being a part of the Artisan & Artist family. Your loyalty means so much to us, and we remain committed to providing you with the products you love.
We look forward to continuing to serve you, wherever you are, for many years to come.
