Further amendment to duties addressing the synthetic opioid supply chain in the People's Republic of China

The higher tariff expands economic pressure on China and increases import costs after the President determined that China had not adequately addressed the illicit synthetic opioid crisis.

What the order does ​

• Raises the additional tariff on covered products of China from 10% to 20%.
• Continues the tariff response because the President determined that China had not taken adequate cooperative enforcement steps and the crisis had not abated.

Who it affects ​

• U.S. importers of covered Chinese products.
• Chinese producers exporting covered goods to the United States.
• Businesses and consumers purchasing goods affected by the tariff.
