The import tariffs proposed by President Trump last Wednesday are having far-reaching effects on global trade—and unfortunately, the pinball industry is not exempt. These impacts can be both indirect (for example, components manufactured in China and used in U.S.-produced pinball machines are now subject to an increased tariff up to 54%!) and direct, especially when it comes to pinball machines manufactured outside of the U.S.

Dutch Pinball falls into the latter category.

As a result, we’ve decided to prioritize production and shipment of *Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland* units destined for markets outside the U.S. This phase will take several months to complete. During this time, we’ll closely monitor how the situation evolves, as trade decisions of this nature are often highly volatile—appearing and disappearing with little notice.

For U.S.-based customers eager to receive their *Alice* machines sooner, we recommend contacting your distributor directly. Please be aware, however, that due to the new tariffs, you should be prepared for an, currently, estimated up to 20% price increase.

We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we navigate these challenges together.
