On\nMay 5, 2019, President Trump tweeted that the U.S. would raise the Section 301\ntariffs on List 3 products (i.e., $200 billion of goods) from 10 percent to 25\npercent. The President also hinted that tariffs on a fourth list of products\n($325 billion of goods) would be forthcoming. On May 7, the U.S. Trade\nRepresentative (\u201cUSTR\u201d) confirmed that the tariffs on List 3 products would be\nincreased to 25 percent. The increase came as a result of stalled trade\nnegotiations between China and the U.S, but more specifically Chinese officials\nwere allegedly attempting to change the language on a deal they had previously\ndiscussed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On\nMay 8, the USTR issued a notice confirming that the List 3 products will be\nsubject to an increased tariff rate of 25% ad valorem, effective on goods: (1)\nentered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or\nafter 12:01 a.m. Eastern time, Friday, May 10, 2019, and (2) exported to the\nUnited States on or after May 10, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pursuant\nto 19 C.F.R. 141.68(a)(3), importers can use the date of a vessel\u2019s arrival in\nthe port limits as the entry date. Therefore, this strategy can be used for\ngoods that are scheduled to arrive in the United States before May 10, 2019, to\navoid the duty increase. The importer must make specific requests to have the\ndate of arrival deemed the date of entry when the entry documentation is filed\nwith U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Importers should contact their customs\nbrokers to arrange such filing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In\nthe May 8, 2019 Notice, the USTR also announces that the long-awaited exclusion\nprocess for List 3 Products will be published in a separate notice. Interested\npersons can request products on List 3 be excluded from the additional duties\nor to oppose exclusion requests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\nare different ways to legally avoid the Section 301 tariffs, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
