In a Cargo Systems Messaging Service (CSMS) bulletin published on November 7, 2025, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) provided updated guidance on the tariffs for products of China under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).

The IEEPA Reciprocal heading 9903.01.63, that has a 34% tariff rate on imports from China, Hong Kong, and Macau will have its suspension extended until November 10, 2026. Qualified products from those countries will continue to use header 9903.01.25 at an additional rate of 10% duty.

The IEEPA China Fentanyl heading 9903.01.24 will have its rate lowered from 20% to 10% for products of China and Hong Kong that are “entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on November 10, 2025.”
