Further Modifying Reciprocal Tariff Rates to Reflect Ongoing Discussions with The People’s Republic of China – The White House

In accordance with the authority granted to me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), section 604 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2483), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, I hereby make the following determination and order:

Section 1. Overview

In Executive Order 14257, issued on April 2, 2025 (which aimed at regulating imports with reciprocal tariffs to address trade practices contributing to the United States’ significant and ongoing goods trade deficits), I identified that such persistent deficits pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to both the national security and economy of the United States, primarily stemming from external sources. This prompted me to declare a national emergency and implement certain ad valorem duties deemed necessary to mitigate this threat.

Further, in Executive Order 14259 dated April 8, 2025 (which amended reciprocal tariffs and updated duties on low-value imports from the People’s Republic of China), along with Executive Order 14266 from April 9, 2025 (which adjusted reciprocal tariff rates in light of retaliatory measures by trading partners), I mandated alterations to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). This adjustment was a direct response to the State Council Tariff Commission of the PRC’s announcement of its intent to retaliate against the United States following the issuance of Executive Orders 14257 and 14259.

Following these developments, the United States engaged in dialogues with the PRC to rectify the ongoing lack of trade reciprocity and address the national economic security concerns arising from it. Consequently, in Executive Order 14298, dated May 12, 2025 (which aimed at modifying reciprocal tariff rates due to discussions with the PRC), I deemed it necessary to address the declared national emergency by suspending for 90 days the additional ad valorem duties imposed on the PRC, as outlined in Annex I of Executive Order 14257, and instead, applied an alternative ad valorem duty rate as specified in Executive Order 14298. This suspension is set to expire at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on August 12, 2025.

The United States continues to engage in discussions with the PRC aimed at achieving a more reciprocal trade relationship. The PRC has reportedly undertaken meaningful steps to rectify the non-reciprocal trade situation and address U.S. economic and national security concerns. Given this new information and recommendations from senior officials, I conclude that it is both necessary and appropriate to extend the suspension initiated by Executive Order 14298 until 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on November 10, 2025.

Sec. 2. Extension of Country-Specific Ad Valorem Duty Suspension

The provisions of Heading 9903.01.63 and subdivision (v)(xiv)(10) of U.S. note 2 to subchapter III of chapter 99 of the HTSUS will remain suspended until 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on November 10, 2025.

Sec. 3. Execution

The Secretary of Commerce, the Secretary of Homeland Security, and the United States Trade Representative, in coordination with the Secretary of State, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, the Senior Counselor to the President for Trade and Manufacturing, the Chair of the United States International Trade Commission, and the Postmaster General, are instructed to take all necessary actions to implement and enforce this order in accordance with applicable law. This includes, but is not limited to, the temporary suspension or amendment of regulations or notices in the Federal Register and the adoption of relevant rules and regulations. These officials are empowered to utilize all powers granted under IEEPA as necessary to effectuate this order. Each executive department and agency is expected to undertake appropriate measures within their authority to implement this order.

Sec. 4. General Provisions

(a) This order should not be interpreted to impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department, agency, or its head; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget concerning budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

(b) This order shall be implemented in accordance with applicable law and subject to available appropriations.

(c) This order does not create any enforceable right or benefit, substantive or procedural, at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

(d) The costs associated with the publication of this order will be covered by the Office of the United States Trade Representative.
