Section 301 News: Progress on Trade Talks

After negotiations last, week the U.S. and China have agreed on the first steps to de-escalate the trade war. The results of this talks are the following:

  • Lists 1, 2, and 3 will not increase to 30% on October 15th, 2019 but will stay at 25%.
  • As of right now, list 4B is still scheduled to go into effect on December 15th, 2019. China has committed to buying $40 to $50 billion worth of U.S. agriculture annually.
  • There was also reported progress on intellectual property, currency manipulation and tech transfer, among other things, but the details have not yet been provided.

Latest Tariff Increase Schedule

While this is undoubtedly a step in the right direction, there is still much uncertainty regarding this trade war. If you would like more information on Section 301 duties, or any other trade related matter please contact Allyn International at sales@allynintl.com
