A word on US Tariffs
US Tariff Update August 2025
From 29th August, a change in US import rules will mean that orders shipped from overseas will be subject to a new 15% customs tariff. Until now, items under $800 could pass through without fees, this rule is ending.
As our bags are shipped directly from our workshop in Ubrique, Spain, we want to ensure you never face unexpected costs at the border. Therefore we now calculate and include this 15% customs charge at checkout. Once you finish checkout there will be no further amounts to pay upon receipt of your order.
With most of our pieces made in small batches and available on pre-order, this change will apply to any orders placed from 15th August 2025 and that are scheduled to ship after 29th August. If you’ve already placed your order prior to this date, this change will not apply. Our team is available if you have any questions about this situation at customerservice@stowlondon.co.uk
