CBP Releases Guidance on Section 301 China Conforming Amendment
CBP has issued guidance on a conforming amendment to the Section 301 China tariff program, signaling updated procedural or classification-level changes that affect how certain China-origin goods are assessed under the Section 301 additional duties. Importers of China-origin merchandise subject to Section 301 should confirm their HTS classifications and duty assessments align with the amended guidance.
Our position is that conforming amendments to Section 301 frequently introduce subtle but consequential changes to which subheadings carry additional duties or how exclusions apply; we are cross-checking active entries against this updated guidance before drawback or protest deadlines run.
