The removal of tariffs on Chinese imports marks a notable shift in U.S.-China trade policies, impacting the logistics and e-commerce sectors. U.S. Tariff Reductions on Chinese Goods Effective May 14 The United States lifted tariffs on Chinese goods, including from Hong Kong and Macao, per a White House executive order. President Donald Trump reversed previous measures, revoking 91% of tariffs initially imposed. Affected tariffs were part of Executive Order No. 14259 and No. 14266. Scott Bessent, U.S. Treasury Secretary, highlighted the new 30% tariff as a “floor,” suggesting potential adjustments after 90 days. Changes impact cross-border trade and potentially e-commerce sectors. Market response was cautious, with focus on potential long-term effects.
