US China Tariff Rollercoaster Continues: Latest Updates on Trade Tensions and Reciprocal Duty Rates Revealed
Today’s China tariff news is full of twists and turns. According to the latest updates from the Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer and iContainers, the United States has seen a rollercoaster of tariff changes under President Trump’s administration, with China remaining a central focus. In April, the U.S. introduced a 10% baseline reciprocal tariff, which quickly evolved into a country-specific structure. By May, the reciprocal rate on Chinese goods had surged to 125%, but a 90-day truce brought it back down to 10%, making the effective duty around 30% for most goods. This truce was part of a broader framework to de-escalate tensions, and it was further solidified by the U.S.-China Kuala Lumpur Joint Arrangement signed in early November. Under this deal, the reciprocal tariff on Chinese goods is now set at 10%, while China has lowered its tariffs on U.S. goods to 10% as well.
However, the situation remains fluid. In October, the U.S. announced a 100% tariff on Chinese imports, but as of now, this has not been fully implemented and is still pending an official Executive Order or Federal Register notice. For now, the 10% reciprocal rate is in force, but listeners should stay alert for any sudden changes. The U.S. has also suspended the de minimis exemption for China and Hong Kong, targeting low-value e-commerce shipments, and this has already impacted cross-border trade.
The legal landscape is just as dynamic. Multiple federal courts have ruled that the broad reciprocal tariffs exceed presidential authority, but enforcement continues as the Supreme Court hears consolidated challenges. The outcome could reshape the future of U.S.-China trade, and listeners should expect more developments in the coming months.
On the ground, businesses are adapting. Many are confirming their Harmonized Tariff Schedule codes, seeking new sourcing options, or moving manufacturing back to the United States. The uncertainty has led to creative strategies, but the risk of further tariff hikes remains real.
