Executive Order 14358: Modifying Reciprocal Tariff Rates Consistent With the Economic and Trade Arrangement Between the United States and the People’s Republic of China

This executive order reflects a major shift in U.S.–China economic relations following a new trade arrangement between the two countries. The order continues the suspension of heightened reciprocal tariffs on Chinese imports, extending the current 10% additional duty rate through November 2026. It highlights China’s commitments to ease export controls on critical minerals, reduce retaliatory trade actions, and increase purchases of key U.S. agricultural products. By maintaining tariff stability, the United States aims to strengthen its manufacturing base, protect national security interests, and promote more balanced trade.
