The extension of the U.S. 301 tariff exemption makes exporting these 178 types of goods more worry-free.
Created on 09.04
Part.1 Which products can enjoy exemptions? Two types of essential goods benefit the most
Among the 178 items exempted this time, two categories are particularly noteworthy:
1. 164 industrial and livelihood products such as parts for children's safety seats, pump accessories, electronic connectors, small parts for ventilators, etc.
These things may seem unremarkable, but they are "essentials" for the manufacturing and healthcare industries in the United States— the domestic production in the U.S. cannot provide such a complete range, and it still relies on the Chinese supply chain.
2. The 14 solar equipment items are all key equipment in the photovoltaic industry, such as silicon growth furnaces and wafer cutting machines. The technical threshold is high, and only China can provide stable supply globally.
The United States wants to achieve an energy transition, and it cannot do so without these devices. If your product is on the list, you won't have to pay the 7.5%-25% tariff that you might have originally had to pay for the next three months when exporting to the United States, which can significantly increase your profit margin.
Part.2 How to coordinate logistics more cost-effectively during the tariff exemption period?
The cost of ocean freight full container locks is suitable for industrial parts and daily necessities in large batch inventory lists, and is suitable for our full container DDP service across the United States.
Shipping large quantities at once has a low unit freight cost, and customs clearance is fully covered throughout the process. The duty exemption policy is directly reflected in the cost, and there are no additional expenses after arriving at the port, making it much more cost-effective than scattered shipments.
Air freight quick replenishment to meet peak season demand. If it is an urgent order for solar energy equipment, it can arrive in the United States in 3-5 days, just in time for the peak procurement season of energy projects in the United States.
We cover an air freight network in over 100 countries worldwide, with stable capacity, ensuring no delays in delivery.
Overseas warehouse temporary storage, flexible adjustment of goods. Overseas warehouses in the United States, Germany, and other places can stock up in advance.
For example, children's safety seat parts are first transported to overseas warehouses. After the customer places an order, local delivery can be made within 3-5 days, which is half as fast as direct shipping from the domestic market, and it can also avoid peak season logistics congestion.
Part.3 Three Practical Suggestions for Bosses
1. First, check the list to quickly verify your product's HS code and see if it is included in the 178 items (you can find the complete list online), so you don't miss the exemption period.
2. Calculate the stocking time. Shipping by sea to the United States takes about 1-2 months. If you ship now, it will just be in time for customs clearance within the exemption period. Don't wait until it's almost expired to ship, as it may be too late.
3. Multi-market layout In addition to the United States, the demand for Chinese goods in markets such as the European Union and ASEAN is also increasing (exports to ASEAN grew by 13.5% in the first 7 months). We can use our global logistics network to simultaneously expand into new markets and diversify risks.
