Restoration of voided China tariffs (under discussion)

After the Supreme Court voided the IEEPA tariffs in February 2026, Washington and Beijing have reportedly agreed on terms for restoring equivalent U.S. tariffs under other legal authorities — but as of June 2026 nothing has been formalized, and an extension of the November truce remains unresolved. Watch for a Federal Register notice; until one exists, no compliance action is required.

Tariffs on Chinese goods imposed in February 2025 over fentanyl trafficking: 10% at first, raised to 20% in March 2025, then cut back to 10% in November 2025 under the U.S.–China trade truce. The Supreme Court's February 2026 IEEPA ruling voided them entirely. As of June 2026 Washington and Beijing have discussed restoring equivalent tariffs under other authorities, but nothing has been formalized.

The original China tariffs: 25% on roughly $250B of imports (Lists 1–3) and 7.5% on List 4A, in force since 2018–2020, plus the 2024 four-year-review increases on strategic sectors — including 100% on EVs, 50% on solar cells and semiconductors, and 25% on lithium-ion batteries. These survived the IEEPA ruling untouched and remain the bedrock of U.S.–China tariff exposure. USTR initiated a second statutory four-year review in May 2026.

Current rate: 25% (Lists 1–3); 7.5% (List 4A); strategic-sector increases incl. 100% EVs, 50% solar cells and semiconductors, 25% lithium-ion batteries

Exclusions that exempt specific products — mostly machinery and manufacturing inputs — from Section 301 China tariffs. As part of the November 2025 trade truce they were extended through November 10, 2026. Importers relying on an exclusion face a hard repricing if it lapses with the truce.

Current rate: 0% additional duty for excluded products (otherwise 25%)
