> Switzerland is planning on charging receivers for the extra postage to make up for the huge losses until the postage union changes the rules. I'd like to know more, do you have a source? Could not find via Google. Many postal services have a charge for customs clearance services, but I haven't heard of anyone charging extra postage yet. > Why doesn't the US do something similar? The U.S. STOP Act of 2018 established a fee of $1 for inbound EMS parcels starting in 2020 to cover customs processing costs. https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/115/hr5788/summary https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/115/hr5788/summary But as noted, customs processing fee is a bit different from charging extra postage. And I believe small letter post items are the bigger issue, not EMS.
