【Firmly retaliate! Starting from April 12, 2025, the tariff rate on imported goods originating from the United States will be increased from 84% to 125%]
On April 10, 2025, the U.S. government announced that the tariff rate on Chinese goods exported to the U.S. will be further increased to 125% as "reciprocal tariffs." The U.S. side's imposition of exorbitant tariffs on China seriously violates international economic and trade rules and contradicts basic economic laws and common sense, constituting unilateral bullying and coercion.
According to the "Customs Law of the People's Republic of China," the "Customs Law of the People's Republic of China," and the "Foreign Trade Law of the People's Republic of China," as well as the basic principles of international law, and with the approval of the State Council, starting from April 12, 2025, the additional tariff measures on imported goods originating from the United States will be adjusted.
The relevant matters are as follows:
1. Adjust the tariff rate on imported goods originating from the United States as stipulated in the "Announcement of the Tariff Commission of the State Council on Adjusting Additional Tariff Measures on Imported Goods Originating from the United States" (Tariff Commission Announcement No. 5 of 2025), which will be increased from 84% to 125%. Given that there is no market acceptance possibility for U.S. goods exported to China at the current tariff level, if the U.S. continues to impose tariffs on Chinese goods, China will not respond.
2. Other matters will be implemented according to the "Announcement of the Tariff Commission of the State Council on Additional Tariffs on Imported Goods Originating from the United States" (Tariff Commission Announcement No. 4 of 2025).
