US Tariffs on China: The question is now arising between the trade war in the US and China whether the Trump administration has quietly increased the tariff rate on Chinese goods to 245 percent? This confusion was born on Wednesday when a fact sheet was released by the White House, which states that up to 245 percent tariffs will be imposed on imported goods from China.
After this, the discussion on social media intensified that the Donald Trump administration has increased the rate of current tariff in China from 145 percent to 245 percent. However, this is not the truth. In fact, this means that by taxing many types of tariffs on some goods imported from China, it will be up to 245 percent.
245 percent tariff on some goods
That is, the rate of tariff on all imported goods from China will not be 245 percent, but this figure of tariff on some items can be increased to increase. For example, the highest 245% tariff is being imposed on Chinese syringes and needles. But it has happened so much with the previous tariff and current tariff.
Which was imposed on China’s syringe in September 2024 during Biden’s government. So that American manufactures can be protected. Now Trump has imposed 20 percent of the phentyle tariff. Also, a recipe of 125 percent has been imposed, after which the total rates of tariffs have increased to 245 percent.
In the same way, the import of Vulan sweater from China will now be targeted for 168.5 percent. The base tariff is 16 percent on the Wool sweater, no matter what the country. Apart from this, an additional 7.5 percent tariff of 7.5 percent was imposed on it as the Biden government. If the fantty tariff is added 20 percent and the reciperochl tariff 125 percent added to it, then the total import tax on it will increase to 168.5 percent.
China’s reaction
The latest step of America is likely to increase trade tension between the two countries. On the one hand, while Trump put a brake on the tariff of 90 days on the rest of the world countries, on the other hand, China was kept separate from it. Taking the answer, China increased the tariff to 125 percent, taking action on American goods. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Gian said- You can ask America about a particular tax rate figure. There can be no winner of tariff and trade war. He further said that China does not want to win this war nor is it scared.
