China has issued Retaliatory Tariffs of 34% on top of existing tariffs and other measures. The President has posted on Truth Social that if China does not withdraw it’s 34% increase by April 8, 2025, the US will impose additional tariffs on China of 50% effective April 9.
Note that Annex I of the reciprocal tariffs has been updated with some countries having revised rates. Annex I has been updated and Annex III has been added on our link.
Note that 10% reciprocal tariff applies as of April 5 for goods from all countries and starting on April 9, countries with specific rates will be subject to their specific rate.
CSMS 64649265 issued April 5 addressing reciprocal tariffs. The CSMS message states “To prevent importers from abusing the exceptions for goods that were in transit before April 5, 2025 when it is no longer realistic due to the passage of time, CBP will permit heading 9903.01.28 to be declared only for goods that are entered for consumption or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. EDT on April 5, 2025, and before 12:01 a.m. EDT on May 27, 2025.”
On June 11, the President announced on Truth Social that the “the deal with China is done.” According to the post, the President and the President of China are working toward final approval.
The Truth Social posting by the President states that the tariffs on Chinese origin goods will be 55%. The 55% will be a combination of existing tariffs including 10% IEEPA reciprocal tariffs, 20% IEEPA drug/border tariffs, and the 25% Section 301 tariff that covers most Chinese origin goods (note some Section 301 rates are currently higher and some are lower).
Full details are not yet known.

For June, we are highlighing Maria “Connie” Villarreal. Connie came to JAS in 2022 and found a great interest in Customs and wanted to learn more. She wanted to expand her skills and take the opportunity to serve as a team leader and trainer for colleagues. Connie firmly believes in embracing opportunities for growth and shows enthusiasm about exploring fresh perspectives and experiences that promote career progression.
As a spouse and parent of four children (two that have reached adulthood), Connie makes time for hobbies and family bonding. She loves to read romance and thriller books, watching movies, and spending time with her loved ones. She also cherishes opportunities to indulge in spa days with her youngest daughter and cook meals with her son.
Connie is another example that “People Make the Difference.”
In May, JAS Forwarding (USA) Inc. Compliance team met at the USA Corporate Headquarters in Atlanta, GA. During the meetings, the team worked to align on all of the trade changes and learn from each other to continue to provide positive impacts to our clients.
