February 6, 2020 – The U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) granted an eighth round of exclusions from Section 301 additional duties for Chinese origin products found on List 3.
Two ten-digit Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) were excluded:
• 8425.31.0100
• 8708.93.7500
As well as 117 specific product descriptions.
Exclusions cover 156 separate exclusion requests, and are effective September 24, 2018, through August 6, 2020, using HTS number 9903.88.38.
Exclusions may be used as long as your product meets the specially prepared product description, whether you applied for the exclusion or not.
Refunds for duties previously paid, which are now excluded, may be applied for using a Post Summary Correction (PSC) for unliquidated entries; or a Protest for entries liquidated within the past 180 days.
Importers should contact their Livingston Service representative to request any applicable PSCs or Protests be filed.
