The Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 will no longer be sold on Apple’s website as of December 21, and a full import ban goes into effect on December 25. Apple still has options to avoid a ban, but time is running out.
Apple put in a motion to stay the Apple Watch import ban until appeals could be processed, but the US International Trade Commission has denied that request. The import ban will occur on December 25 as scheduled unless the White House steps in or customs accepts an alteration from Apple.
