Notice of Action and Request for Public Comment Concerning Proposed Determination of Action Pursuant to Section 301: China's Acts, Policies, and Practices Related to Technology Transfer, Intellectual Property, and Innovation

USTR is proposing additional tariffs on Chinese imports under Section 301, based on a determination that China's acts, policies, and practices related to technology transfer, intellectual property, and innovation are actionable. Importers of covered Chinese goods face potential new duty liability and must engage the public comment and exclusion processes to protect their supply chains.

The proposed tariff action targets Chinese imports linked to technology transfer, intellectual property, and innovation practices. Specific HS subheadings are not enumerated in the linked signals, but a product-specific exclusion request process has been opened for List 1 covered goods.
