August 2026 Trade is slowly becoming more and more difficult. All shipping to EU is currently on hold as the EU is changing the way duty is paid and NZ Post has stopped accepting shipments until the new system is sorted. Shipping to the USA is now possible again. All US shipments are now going to incur a DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) fee. This is made up of 5.3% duty, 12.5% reciprocal tariff, 5% dispersement fee and $5 administration fee. The total of these charges is slightly more than 20% extra on the cost of products. This seems to be changing all the time and it is difficult to keep up with. We have decided to stop producing the original Kiwi-3P and will only make the Kiwi3P Matrix from now on. Due to demand we will continue with the Kiwi-8P. Kiwitechnics is going to be closed for the month of September.
