China to extend suspension of 24% additional tariffs on US goods

China will extend the suspension of an additional 24 percent tariff on imports from the United States for another two months, while maintaining a 10 percent tariff, the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council announced on Monday.

The adjustment will take effect from 01:01 pm on Tuesday, according to a statement released by the commission.

The move is aimed at implementing the consensus reached during the Washington meeting between the heads of state of China and the US, the statement said.

The decision, approved by the State Council, follows relevant Chinese laws and regulations, as well as fundamental principles of international law, the statement added.

The adjustment applies to additional tariffs imposed under a previous announcement issued by the commission in 2025.
