Section 301 China four-year review: 25 to 100 percent on EVs, chips, batteries, solar, steel and more
USTR's 2024 review raised the Section 301 rate on 14 groups of Chinese goods in three steps (September 27, 2024, January 1, 2025 and January 1, 2026). These lines left the List 1 to 4A notes, so the new rate replaces the list rate instead of adding to it.

COVERED GOODS
Annex A lists 389 subheadings and statistical reporting numbers in 14 product groups: battery parts, electric vehicles, facemasks, lithium-ion EV and non-EV batteries, medical gloves, natural graphite, other critical minerals, permanent magnets, semiconductors, ship-to-shore cranes, solar cells, steel and aluminum products, syringes and needles. Each line's rate and start date is in rate_lines.
EXCLUSIONS
The 14 temporary exclusions this notice created for solar manufacturing equipment (heading 9903.88.70) are among the 178 exclusions USTR extended to November 9, 2026 (fr-2025-21671); the other 164 are earlier exclusions. Ship-to-shore cranes under contracts dated before May 14, 2024 were excluded only if entered before May 14, 2026.
WHAT TO DO (OUR GUIDANCE, NOT LEGAL ADVICE)
If you import EVs, batteries, semiconductors, solar cells, medical supplies, magnets, graphite or the listed steel and aluminum lines from China, look up the 8-digit or 10-digit code in rate_lines: the rate here replaces the List 1 to 4A rate for that line. Check the exclusions that run to November 9, 2026.
