China will remove additional tariffs imposed on certain imports from Canada, following recent consultations that led to a preliminary arrangement between the two countries, the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council announced on Friday.
The move comes after Canada adjusted some of its tariff measures targeting Chinese electric vehicles and steel and aluminum products. In response, China imposed countermeasures, including additional duties on selected Canadian goods such as peas and lobsters.
A spokesperson from the Ministry of Commerce said that in light of the progress made through bilateral consultations and Canada's partial adjustments to its tariff policies, China has decided to cancel the additional anti-discrimination tariffs on certain Canadian imports.
The revised measures will take effect on March 1, 2026, and remain in force until Dec 31, 2026.
