How do I know if my import will have additional duties, like the “China Section 301 tariffs and exclusions” or “Solar tariffs” or “Section 232 tariffs,” for example?

How do I know if my import will have additional duties, like the “China Section 301 tariffs and exclusions” or “Solar tariffs” or “Section 232 tariffs,” for example?

The USITC provides a helpful table (PDF) that lists the HTS subheadings in chapters 01 through 97 that are covered by the additional tariffs on products of China and the applicable HTS heading in subchapter III of chapter 99 where the additional tariff is provided for.  Further information about China 301 tariffs and exclusions can be found at this USTR website. Note that this table is not a part of the HTS itself and should not be relied upon as an authoritative source.  See question titled “How does the HTS use Endnotes, Footnotes and Compiler’s Notes?” under “Making Sense of the HTS”.

For other additional duties including the Section 201 tariffs on solar cells and panels and Section 232 tariffs on aluminum and steel, see this CBP website.
