Frequently Asked Questions

What is the current China tariff rate in 2026?

As of May 2026, most Chinese goods face: MFN base rate + Section 301 (7.5–25%) + Section 122 surcharge (10%, effective Feb 24, 2026). Combined effective rates typically range from 17.5%–40%+ depending on the product.

What is Section 301?

Section 301 tariffs are additional duties on Chinese goods imposed by USTR under the Trade Act of 1974. Lists 1–3 carry 25% additional duty; List 4A carries 7.5%. These stack on top of the MFN base rate.

What happened to IEEPA tariffs?

The Supreme Court struck down all IEEPA tariffs on February 20, 2026 in Learning Resources v. Trump (6–3 ruling). The Court held IEEPA does not authorize tariff-setting. Congress enacted a temporary 10% Section 122 surcharge as a replacement, which took effect February 24, 2026 and expires ~July 24, 2026.

How do I calculate total duty for goods from China?

Total rate = MFN base rate + Section 301 (check which list covers your HTS code) + Section 122 (currently 10%). For example: 5% MFN + 25% Section 301 (List 1) + 10% Section 122 = 40%. Add MPF (0.3464%, min $33.58, max $651.50) and HMF (0.125%) for the full CBP fee burden.
