Import duty from China to the USA
The most tariff-exposed origin: Section 301 duties (7.5%–100% by product) remain in force after the 2026 IEEPA ruling, on top of Section 232 metals/autos exposure and the 10% Section 122 baseline. The IEEPA 'fentanyl' and 'reciprocal' surcharges were struck down (2026-02-20) and are being refunded.
