U.S. exempts some medical, electronic devices from China tariffs
|
The Trump administration will exempt 110 Chinese products, from medical equipment to key capacitors, from hefty tariffs.
The relatively narrow exemption list will provide relief from 25% tariffs the United States slapped on $34 billion of Chinese imports on July 6, 2018.
USTR has exempted a component in a Medtronic Plc (MDT.N) device used to treat liver tumors, one of 12 exclusion requests granted to the world’s largest medical device maker. The company argued that the R&D-heavy components, at most risk for intellectual property theft, were not produced in China.
