These tariffs, which added 7.5% and 25% to certain imports from China, cover a wide range of products, totaling approximately $550 billion annually.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Introduction of Duty Exclusions<\/strong> In December 2018, the USTR began an exclusion process for these tariffs, allowing businesses to request exclusions or apply for duty recovery. Recently, 352 exclusions and 77 COVID-related product exclusions have been extended until December 31, 2023, covering items ranging from medical products to industrial components.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Looking Ahead to Year-End<\/strong> Major revisions to the China Tariffs are not anticipated until the USTR completes its statutory four-year review. This review will assess the overall impact of the tariffs on the U.S. economy, consumers, and businesses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>How Coral &amp; Friends Can Assist<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Identifying Duty Exclusions:<\/strong> Utilize our U.S. Tariff Search Tool to determine if exclusions apply to your products.
