Late Friday, the US trade representative announced the increase in widespread tariffs on Chinese containers and other measures in response to China’s use of unfair trade practices to create a leading position in transportation and shipbuilding.
Crane cranes, on November 9, said that President Donald Trump sets new 100 % tariffs in all China imports since November 1, and then fired a new export control in rare land minerals after Beijing was announced.
The USTR at the same time announced 100 % tariff on Chinese -made international chassis, as well as effective on November 9, in addition to a mutual task of about 44.32 % due to subsidies in Chinese chassis and an anti -dumping task 188.05 %, five years ago.
Trump’s response will increase US measures to 130 % later this month, as business partners are taking their actions before the Chinese leader Shi Jinping and Trump at a global economic conference in South Korea.
Ustr changes include 100 % tariffs on ship container cranes and 150 % in rubber rubber cranes produced in China, which is 65-70 % of the World Crane Market and 80 % in the United States, mostly through ZPMC manufacturer. According to the White & Case Law Institute, adding 25 % tariff on cranes and other retaliatory charges can bring accumulated costs between 125-270 %.
Crane made in China can work with the largest container ships from $ 14 million to $ 20 million.
Ustr first offered crane tariffs and port costs on Chinese ships in April before announcing changes in June following public statements. These measures are aimed at helping to rejuvenate American shipbuilding. This week, China announced the punitive port costs on US ships that are mirrors in the United States.
The Ustr also sets $ 46 per net per ton for carrier of foreign -made vehicles that call US ports. Previously, these ships were spent as $ 150 per vehicle. The Bureau of Commerce eliminated regulations to suspend liquefied natural gas export permits (LNG) on the use of foreign -made vessels and added costs related to Ethane and Petroleum Carrier (LPG) under long -term charter.
Ustr said some costs may be postponed by December 10, while assessing public opinion on new suggestions. The deadline for submitting written comments is November 12.
