Biden Administration Continues Exemptions for Certain China Tariffs

The Biden administration, following a precedent set by the previous administration, has again extended exclusions for specific products from the Section 301 tariffs on imports from China. These tariffs were initially implemented in 2018 and have been subjected to multiple extensions.

According to a notice in the Federal Register by the United States Trade Representative (USTR), the latest extension includes 77 medical items that have been exempt from tariffs since 2020 due to COVID-19-related concerns.

This decision to extend the exclusions comes amid the Biden administration’s consideration of public feedback gathered during the ongoing “four-year review” of the Section 301 tariffs, which began in May 2022. The review’s first phase involved collecting insights from domestic industries that have benefited from these tariffs.

In December, when announcing the extensions, the USTR indicated that these measures are intended to align with the broader review process currently underway.

However, the decision has prompted inquiries from industry representatives. Steve Lamar, President and CEO of the American Apparel & Footwear Association (AAFA), expressed concerns in a public statement about the new comment process for these exclusions and the delay in announcing the results of the four-year review, which already encompassed the current exclusions.

Lamar also criticized the timing of the extension decision by the Biden administration, acknowledging the relief provided by the renewal of exemptions but lamenting the last-minute nature of the announcement.

The AAFA, along with other industry groups that depend on imports from China, has been opposed to the tariffs since their inception under the Trump administration. These tariffs have imposed significant financial burdens, particularly on lower-income consumers, as detailed in a 2023 study by major industry groups. The study noted that apparel, footwear, and travel goods were among the sectors heavily impacted by increased costs. Conversely, a report by the U.S. International Trade Commission released last year acknowledged that the tariffs boosted domestic production in targeted sectors but adversely affected downstream industries reliant on imports.

In his latest statement, Lamar emphasized the need for tariff reduction strategies, especially during periods of sustained inflation, to alleviate consumer price pressures.
