If you are expecting a package from Europe or India, you may be waiting a while.

如果你希望收到來自歐洲或印度的包裹，可能需要等待一段時間。

Multiple European postal services and the government of India announcing they are set to suspend shipments to the United States.

歐洲多家郵政服務機構和印度政府宣佈將暫停向美國發貨。

基礎被動語態

They're citing a lack of clarity when it comes to new import tariffs that are expected to take effect this week.

他們的理由是，預計本週生效的新進口關稅缺乏明確性。

News Nation's Marcus Espinosa joining us now.

News Nation 的 Marcus Espinosa 加入我們。

Marcus, walk us through this about why it's happening and how it's going to affect you and I and the American consumer.

馬庫斯，帶我們瞭解一下為什麼會發生這種情況，以及它將如何影響你我和美國消費者。

Yeah, Hannah, the short answer tariffs, but there's a lot more complexity in that as well there.

是的，漢娜，簡短的回答是關稅，但其中還有很多複雜的因素。

So both Europe and India are now suspending many shipments to the United States.

歐洲和印度現在都暫停了許多運往美國的貨物。

It all comes down to how packages enter the U.S. and new rules that will change what gets taxed.

這一切都取決於包裹如何進入美國，以及將改變徵稅內容的新規則。

At the center of it is the end of what's called the de minimis exemption.

其核心是終止所謂的 "最小豁免"。

That's set to expire on August 29th, a rule that lets packages worth less than $800 enter the U.S. duty free.

該規定將於 8 月 29 日到期，該規定允許價值低於 800 美元的包裹免稅進入美國。

Last year alone, more than 1.3 billion packages arrived that way worth more than $64 billion.

僅去年一年，就有超過 13 億個包裹通過這種方式送達，價值超過 640 億美元。

Across Europe, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Italy have already stopped shipments of many packages to the U.S.

在整個歐洲，德國、丹麥、瑞典和意大利已經停止向美國運送許多包裹。

France and Austria will join in on Monday and the U.K.'s Royal Mail says it will halt service Tuesday to let packages already in transit arrive before the new duties take hold.

法國和奧地利將於週一加入這一行列，英國皇家郵政表示將於週二停止服務，以便在新關稅生效前讓已在運輸途中的包裹順利抵達。

And in India, postal officials say starting August 25th, they will suspend all shipments to the U.S.

而在印度，郵政官員表示從 8 月 25 日開始，他們將暫停所有運往美國的貨物。

That's tomorrow, except letters, documents and small gifts under $100.

也就是明天，信件、文件和 100 美元以下的小禮物除外。

Meanwhile, DHL, Europe's largest shipping provider, is also pulling back.

與此同時，歐洲最大的航運服務提供商 DHL 也在撤退。

The company is saying it can't continue accepting business parcels to the U.S. until there's more clarity on how the new duties will be handled.

該公司表示，在新關稅的處理方式更加明確之前，它無法繼續接受寄往美國的商業包裹。

Under the new framework, most goods shipped from Europe will face a 15% tariff and packages under $800 will no longer be duty free.

在新框架下，從歐洲運來的大部分商品將面臨 15%的關稅，800 美元以下的包裹將不再免稅。

In India, any package over $100 will now be subject to new duties with only small gifts and documents exempt.

在印度，任何超過 100 美元的包裹都將被徵收新的關稅，只有小禮物和文件可以免稅。

You've followed along so far, until U.S. authorities spell out the rules basically, Americans waiting on deliveries from Europe or India could be left hanging with no clear timeline on when normal shipping will resume.

你一直在關注此事，直到美國當局明確規定，基本上等待從歐洲或印度發貨的美國人可能會無所適從，無法確定何時恢復正常運輸。

I am following along and the long list of countries is a little concerning here, especially considering how confused they seem to be about the tariffs.

我一直在關注，這份長長的國家名單有點令人擔憂，尤其是考慮到他們似乎對關稅感到非常困惑。

There's a couple of options there and then hopefully during the week, perhaps the U.S. will speak out and clarify some things there, but right now options are limited.

有幾個選擇，然後希望在本週內，美國可能會發表聲明並澄清一些事情，但目前的選擇有限。

Like I mentioned, many postal services have paused shipments, mainly because there's still no clear rule book on how these duties will be collected.

就像我提到的，很多郵政服務都暫停了發貨，主要是因為還沒有明確的規則來規定如何收取這些關稅。

Shipping by services like DHL Express are still operating, though at a much higher cost than regular mail and there are limited exceptions.

DHL 快遞等服務仍在營運，但費用遠高於普通郵件，而且例外情況有限。

In India, letters, documents and small gifts under $100, as I mentioned, are still allowed and in Europe, regular mail without merchandise is not affected.

在印度，正如我提到的，100 美元以下的信件、文件和小禮物仍然是允許的；在歐洲，不含商品的普通郵件也不受影響。

So for consumers, the biggest work around may be checking where your order is coming from and buying from outside of Europe or India for now.

對於消費者來說，目前最大的解決方法可能是檢查你的訂單來自哪裡，並從歐洲或印度以外的地方購買。

And honestly, the best option is if you need something right away, go ahead and go out and order it quickly and hope it arrives before those new duties kick in.

老實說，如果你急著需要什麼，最好的辦法就是趕快下單，希望他能在新的政策生效之前送到。

Hannah, you know, I was going to order a new football jersey, Arsenal football jersey from Europe, you know, I've adopted the sport over there.

漢娜，你知道嗎，我本來打算從歐洲訂一件新的足球球衣，一件阿森納的球衣。你知道的，我現在已經迷上那邊的足球了。

I think I need to put that order in today.

Especially considering some of these changes will start tomorrow.

特別是考慮到有些變化將從明天開始。

Alright, Marcus Espinosa. Thank you. Very important information for us to know.
