Duty Deferrals Up to $105 Million; About $62 Billion Assessed in Duties Under Sections 301, 232, 201 Trade Remedies

CBP has assessed about $62 billion in duties under the major trade remedies started during the Trump administration as of May 13, according to CBP's trade statistics page. That includes $51.4 billion in duties from the Section 301 tariffs on goods from China, and $486.1 million in Section 301 tariffs on goods from the European Union. CBP also has assessed about $7 billion under the Section 232 tariffs on steel and $2.1 billion under tariffs on aluminum. The Section 201 trade remedies on washing machines, washing machine parts and solar cells account for $1.7 billion in assessed tariffs. CBP's statistics account for refunds provided to importers.

CBP also added a new section to the page for statistics on deferred regular customs duties. Although a CBP official recently said about $72 million of duties were deferred so far (see 2005130022), the CBP page puts the amount of estimated payments at $105.3 million. CBP said 1,137 importers have requested extended deadlines for the payments.
