Amendment to Reciprocal Tariffs and Updated Duties as Applied to Low-Value Imports from the People’s Republic of China

The order directs Federal agencies to update duties applied to low-value imports from the People's Republic of China. It instructs a modification of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) to increase the duties imposed on China in response to their retaliation from 34% to 84%. Additionally, the order mandates an increase of the ad valorem rate of duty (30% to 90%) and the per postal item containing goods duty ($25 to $75), as set forth in prior executive orders, to ensure the efficacy of the imposed tariffs.
