The United States and China have agreed to extend their current trade truce for another 90 days, delaying planned tariff increases that were due to take effect this week.
Under the agreement:
- The US will maintain its 30% tariff on Chinese imports until 10 November 2025.
- China will keep its 10% tariff on American goods in place during the same period.
This extension follows significant reductions earlier in the year. Tariffs had reached 145% (US) and 125% (China) before being lowered after trade talks in Geneva in May. The extra three months now give both countries additional time to negotiate a longer-term solution.
For importers and exporters, the pause means no immediate changes to current duty rates – but the situation remains fluid. We will continue to monitor developments and share updates as they happen.
