Announcement of the Tax Commission No. 1 of 2025

On February 1, 2025, the US government announced a 10% tariff on all Chinese goods imported to the US, citing issues such as fentanyl. The unilateral imposition of tariffs by the United States seriously violates the rules of the World Trade Organization, which not only fails to solve its own problems, but also undermines normal economic and trade cooperation between China and the United States. According to the Customs Law of the People's Republic of China, the Customs Law of the People's Republic of China, the Foreign Trade Law of the People's Republic of China and other laws and regulations, as well as the basic principles of international law, with the approval of the State Council, tariffs will be imposed on some imported goods originating in the United States from February 10, 2025. The relevant matters are as follows:

1、 An additional 15% tariff will be imposed on coal and liquefied natural gas, with specific product scope detailed in Annex 1.

2、 An additional 10% tariff will be imposed on crude oil, agricultural machinery, large displacement vehicles, and pickup trucks. Please refer to Annex 2 for specific product scope.

3、 For imported goods listed in the attachment originating from the United States, corresponding tariffs will be imposed on top of the current applicable tariff rates. The current bonded and tax reduction policies remain unchanged, and the tariffs imposed this time will not be reduced.

Attachment: （1）List of goods subject to an additional 15% tariff
