Effective February 4, 2025, an additional 10% tariff will be imposed on all goods from China (including the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region). The tariff will be stacked on top of existing tariffs. The Executive Order also specifies that covered imports will be assessed regardless of the declared value, and that goods containing such merchandise will no longer be eligible for the $800 “de'minimis” tariff exemption under U.S. Section 321. If Chinese manufactured goods valued at $800 or less were previously exempted from tariffs under the U.S. de minimis, under the new rules, which take effect on February 4, 2025, such goods will no longer be eligible for section 321 benefits (Us delowmis) and will be subject to published tariff rates.
