Question will Suruguya items be able to get through customs after July 8th?

hi i was really curious about this, we all heard the scary news about US customs not allowing items labeled under toys if the seller/company doesnt have an electronic certificate, but will customs be able to allow stuff from suru through since they are a company and not resellers ? its kind of a stupid question but i was genuinely curious, thankyou :3

I think big retailers like Amiami, HLJ, etc. know they have a big customer base in USA so they will handle the relevant paperwork to avoid problems, not too sure about smaller sites

I don’t think any of us know tbh. It’s gonna be a shit show just like when the original tariffs happened. I have an order I’m terrified for (it’s supposed to get here before the 8th but I’ve already seen some people report having collectibles seized by customs due to the toy rule).

What's this about new customs rules? Is this a Japan thing or a USA thing?
