(MENAFN- Khaleej Times)

DHL DHLn, which runs Germany's postal service Deutsche Post, said it will suspend acceptance and transport of parcels and postal items containing goods from business customers destined for the United States after August 25.

"The reason for these likely temporary restrictions is new processes required by US authorities for postal shipping, which differ from the previously applicable regulations," it said in a statement on Friday (August 22).

On April 20, DHL Express, a division of Germany's Deutsche Post, said it would suspend global business-to-consumer shipments worth over $800 to individuals in the US, as US customs regulatory changes have lengthened clearance.

The notice on the company website was not dated, but its metadata showed it was compiled on Saturday.

DHL blamed the halt on new US customs rules which require formal entry processing on all shipments worth over $800. The minimum had been $2,500 until a change on April 5.
