***ATTENTION CARRIERS AND IMPORTERS*** As a result of the Reciprocal Tariff Executive Order, CBP now requires additional data on top of what is required by the prior tariff orders. This is resulting in further increased processing times and we anticipate significant delays for the foreseeable future. Please ensure you continue to provide your paperwork to BCB with significant lead time. Your patience during this unprecedented time is greatly appreciated.

U.S. CUSTOMS ALERT: Increased Reciprocal Tariff on China, 90-day Pause on All Others

  • by BCB International

    • An Executive Order has been signed further increasing the reciprocal tariff rate on products of China to 125% effective April 10, 2025 at 12:01 am.  Any shipments that cross the border after that time will be subject to duty at the increased rate.

    Additionally, the Order suspends the country-specific tariff rates listed in Annex III to the original reciprocal tariff Executive Order.  The 10% base line rate remains in effect for all countries except for Canada, Mexico, and of course, China.  Products of Canada and Mexico are exempt from the 10% rate regardless of USMCA qualification and continue to be exempt from the 25% IEEPA tariffs if qualifying for preferential treatment pursuant to the USMCA.
