Beyond De Minimis: How Regulatory Shifts Are Reshaping Global E-Commerce
What happens when a century-old trade provision suddenly disappears? In this episode of The BITE Pod, host Anne Riitho sits down with Agustin Farias of Passport Global to unpack the sweeping changes to U.S. de minimis rules — once a cornerstone of cross-border e-commerce.
Agustin brings more than two decades of experience helping Fortune 100 retailers and international brands expand across borders, optimize logistics, and navigate compliance. Together, we explore:
The history of de minimis — from $1 in 1930 to $800 in 2015 — and its 2025 elimination
How the February, May, and August policy changes disrupted millions of shipments and entire supply chains
The operational and strategic challenges facing e-commerce and DTC brands, from tariff costs to forced labor compliance
How innovative brands are adapting — from sourcing shifts and duty drawback programs to AI-driven product classification
If you’re in e-commerce, logistics, or trade compliance, this conversation is a must-listen. Change is the new norm, but with the right strategy, businesses can turn disruption into opportunity.
