Amazon Reverses Decision: No Tariff Costs Display on Product Listings

Amazon's Clarification on Tariff Display

In a recent development, Amazon has made it clear that the idea of showing import charges on its product listings was never finalized. "The team operating our ultra-low-cost Amazon Haul store considered listing import charges on select products," stated Amazon spokesperson Tim Doyle in a conversation with CNBC. "This proposal was never approved and will not occur."

White House's Criticism

The announcement comes after the White House expressed its disapproval towards Amazon's initial plan to display tariff costs from the Trump era on its website. This move by Amazon to step back from the proposal highlights the company's responsiveness to governmental feedback and its commitment to maintaining a user-friendly shopping experience.
