FROM A24 corporate offices.
In the meantime, Mr Vergara said that using alternative courier services such as JustShip will cost him $28.10 to send a parcel to the US.
Previously, with SingPost's regular service, Mr Vergara paid $11.90 to send out parcels to America and charged a flat rate of US$15 for all orders worldwide, including the US. Now, he charges US$25 for shipments to the US, while maintaining the flat rate for other international orders.
While some postal services in Singapore have suspended delivery services to the US, others are offering help with the collection of duties and taxes.
JustShip, a shipping service company that started in 2020, has taken the opportunity to introduce a lower-cost shipping option.
