About $36 Billion Assessed in Duties Under Sections 301, 232, 201 Trade Remedies, CBP Says

CBP has assessed about $35.9 billion in duties under the major trade remedies started during the Trump administration as of Aug. 28, according to CBP's trade statistics page. That includes $27 billion in duties from the Section 301 tariffs on goods from China. The assessed tariffs under Section 301 will likely start to increase quicker once the planned 15 percent tariffs take effect on Sept. 1 (see 1908270066). CBP also has assessed about $6.1 billion under the Section 232 tariffs on steel and $1.7 billion under tariffs on aluminum. The Section 201 trade remedies on washing machines, washing machine parts and solar cells (see 1801230052), imposed Jan. 23, 2018, account for $1 billion in assessed tariffs.
