Section 301 list status is taken from the USITC "China Tariffs" reference (last updated July 28, 2026). Background on the lists is on USTR's Section 301 tariff actions page. Other duties on goods from China, such as IEEPA duties under U.S. notes 2(u)/2(v) to chapter 99, change often and are not included here; check the current HTS chapter 99 before you price. Exclusions, if any, are listed in U.S. note 20.
