U.S. Extends Tariff Exclusions for Certain Chinese Products Under U.S. Note 20(o)
The U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) announced an extension of tariff exclusions for specific Chinese products classified under U.S. Note 20(o) to subchapter III of chapter 99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS). This applies to certain goods imported from China, though not specific to Bahamas trade routes.
October 15, 2023
Impact: This extension provides temporary relief for U.S. importers of these Chinese products, potentially affecting supply chains involving the Bahamas if transshipment or intermediary trade is involved. However, direct Bahamas-U.S. trade impact remains limited.
USTR Reviews Section 301 Tariffs on Chinese Goods with Exclusions Under Note 20(o)
The USTR initiated a review of Section 301 tariffs on Chinese imports, including products under U.S. Note 20(o) with granted exclusions. Stakeholders are invited to comment on the effectiveness of these exclusions.
September 20, 2023
Impact: The review could lead to changes in tariff policies, indirectly influencing U.S.-Bahamas trade if excluded Chinese products are part of regional supply chains or trade agreements involving the Bahamas.
New Exclusions Granted for Chinese Products Under U.S. Note 20(o)
The USTR granted new exclusions for a limited set of Chinese products under U.S. Note 20(o), exempting them from additional Section 301 tariffs. Specific HS codes were not detailed in public announcements.
August 5, 2023
Impact: These exclusions may reduce costs for U.S. businesses importing from China, with potential indirect effects on Bahamas-U.S. trade if these products are re-exported or integrated into regional trade networks.
