Question 1

How are US import duties from China calculated?

Accepted Answer

Start with the base MFN rate for the HTS code, then stack the trade-remedy tariffs that apply to China. From China, expect the base duty plus Section 301 (if the code is listed), the current temporary import surcharge where applicable — and Section 232 on metals. This is usually the heaviest-stacking origin. The calculator estimates the stack for the code and value you enter.

Question 2

Is there a free-trade agreement with China?

Accepted Answer

No US free-trade agreement applies to this origin, so the base MFN rate generally applies and current surcharge or trade-remedy layers may also apply.
