Urgent · Certain China tariff exclusions are due to expire November 9; affected importers should review upcoming entries.
USTR’s existing notice extends 178 Section 301 exclusions for qualifying products of China to November 9, 2026. The notice states 11:59 p.m. Eastern daylight time, while its annexes describe coverage as before that time. The exclusions concern specific product descriptions and tariff classifications under headings 9903.88.69 and 9903.88.70—not all Chinese goods. This is a reminder, not a new tariff announcement.
Review eligibility and planned entry timing with a qualified customs adviser, and check for any later extension or CBP instructions. USTR notice and annexes · USTR exclusion page
