China Section 301 exclusions extended to 9 January 2027: the full list of 178 and how to check yours
On 10 November 2026 USTR extended all 178 product exclusions from the China Section 301 tariffs for another two months, to 11:59 p.m. eastern time on 9 January 2027. An exclusion lifts the 25% or 7.5% list duty on one product, and nothing else. Below is the full list, built from the HTSUS text our engine uses, with the one distinction that matters most: whether the exclusion covers your whole 10-digit HTS line or only a product described within it.

Counts from HTSUS 2026 Rev. 22, ch. 99, U.S. note 20(vvv)(i)–(iv) and 20(www), as parsed by our data build (2026-11-10); the 178 total matches USTR's notice. Dates from FR Doc. 2026-22925, Annexes A and B, read 10 November 2026.
What USTR changed on 10 November 2026
USTR's notice "Product Exclusion Extensions: China's Acts, Policies, and Practices Related to Technology Transfer, Intellectual Property, and Innovation" (FR Doc. 2026-22925) was filed for public inspection on 9 November 2026 at 8:45 a.m. and published in the Federal Register on 10 November 2026. It extends all 178 exclusions that were still in force. Annex A covers the 164 exclusions under heading 9903.88.69 (U.S. note 20(vvv)(i)–(iv)); Annex B covers the 14 solar-manufacturing-equipment exclusions under heading 9903.88.70 (U.S. note 20(www)).
Both annexes apply to goods "entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on November 10, 2026, and before 11:59 p.m. eastern time on January 9, 2027", and change the end date printed in both headings from 9 November 2026 to 9 January 2027. HTSUS Revision 22, in force since 30 October 2026, still prints the old date. The notice's background section speaks of extending the exclusions "until January 10, 2027"; the dates line and both annexes say 11:59 p.m. ET on 9 January, so the last day an excluded entry can be made is 9 January 2027.
USTR gives the reason as "ongoing discussions with China". The same 10 January 2027 date now ends several other US–China measures, including the suspension of the Section 301 maritime actions (FR Doc. 2026-22867; see our vessel-fee guide) and China's suspension of its October 2025 export controls (MOFCOM/GACC Announcement No. 58 of 2026; see China export controls).
What the exclusions are: headings 9903.88.69 and 9903.88.70
Since 2018 many Chinese goods have paid an extra Section 301 duty set by the list their HTS line is on: 25% for Lists 1, 2 and 3 (headings 9903.88.01, 9903.88.02, 9903.88.03 and 9903.88.04) and 7.5% for List 4A (9903.88.15). Each of those headings applies "except as provided in" a set of exclusion headings, one of which is 9903.88.69. An excluded product is classified in the exclusion heading instead, whose rate in HTSUS Rev. 22 is "the duty provided in the applicable subheading": the normal MFN rate, with no list duty.
Heading 9903.88.69 covers entries from 15 June 2024 of products listed in U.S. note 20(vvv), which has one subdivision per list: (i) List 1, (ii) List 2, (iii) List 3 (both 9903.88.03 and 9903.88.04), and (iv) List 4A. Heading 9903.88.70 covers entries from 1 January 2024 of the products in note 20(www): 14 kinds of machinery used to make solar ingots, wafers and cells, classified in heading 8486, excluded from the List 2 duty. Note 20(www) applies them "when such products of China are entered with a claim for the tariff treatment provided in heading 9903.88.70".

Source: HTSUS 2026 Rev. 22, ch. 99, headings 9903.88.01–.04, 9903.88.15, 9903.88.69 and 9903.88.70 and U.S. note 20(vvv)–(www), read 10 November 2026. The List 2 row includes the 14 solar-equipment exclusions of note 20(www), all of them described products.
Whole line or described product: the distinction that decides your rate
USTR's notice says the scope of each exclusion "is governed by the scope of the ten-digit" HTSUS statistical reporting numbers and product descriptions in notes 20(vvv) and 20(www). In practice the 178 items come in two shapes.
Whole-line exclusions (27). The note names only a statistical line, for example "(2) 8607.21.1000". Every product classified in that line is excluded. Two of them name two lines each, so 27 exclusions cover 29 statistical lines. For 7 of those, the excluded lines are the whole 8-digit subheading (0304.72.50, 3401.19.00, 5504.10.00, 6210.10.50, 8425.31.01, 8607.21.10, 9030.90.46). For these lines our engine charges 0% Section 301 until 9 January 2027.
Described exclusions (151). The note describes a product "described in statistical reporting number" a given line, for example backpacks of man-made-fiber textile within stated height, width and depth ranges in 4202.92.3120. Only goods that match every element of the description are excluded; other goods in the same line pay the list rate. Our engine keeps the list rate in the total for these lines and adds a note naming the exclusion, because an HTS code cannot show whether your backpack is 75 cm or 76 cm tall.
Check the 10th digit. Exclusions follow statistical lines, not 8-digit subheadings. Clinical infrared thermometers (9025.19.8010) are excluded in full; other infrared thermometers in the same subheading (9025.19.8060) are not, and pay 25% under List 2.
The full list of 178 exclusions
Search by HTS code (any number of digits) or by a word from the product description, filter by list or coverage, and sort by any column. For whole-line exclusions the description is the HTSUS text of the statistical line; for described exclusions it is the product description in the note, which sets the exclusion's scope.

How importers claim an exclusion
There is nothing to apply for. USTR's notice says the extensions are "available for any product that meets the description in the product exclusion". The exclusion is claimed on the entry summary, line by line:
- Report the exclusion heading in place of the list heading. Use 9903.88.69 for an exclusion in note 20(vvv), or 9903.88.70 for one of the solar-equipment exclusions in note 20(www), instead of 9903.88.01, .02, .03, .04 or .15. The list headings apply "except as provided in" 9903.88.69 (and 9903.88.02 also excepts 9903.88.70).
- Report it together with the regular line. Chapter 99 statistical note 1(a) says to report the chapter 99 number "in addition to the 10-digit statistical reporting number appearing in chapters 1 through 97". The excluded product keeps its normal 10-digit classification, for example 8607.21.1000, and pays its MFN rate.
- Keep the other chapter 99 numbers that still apply. The exclusion removes only the list duty. A product that also owes the forced-labor tariff or a Section 232 duty is still reported under those headings.
- Keep proof that the goods match. For a described exclusion, keep the specifications (dimensions, wattage, materials, end use) that show the product meets every term of the description, in case CBP asks.
USTR's notice says CBP "will issue instructions on entry guidance and implementation". When we checked CBP's CSMS feed on 10 November 2026 those instructions had not appeared, so the order in which chapter 99 numbers are reported and any other filing details should come from CBP's message or your customs broker. USTR names [email protected] for classification and implementation questions. This page explains the published rules; it is not a ruling.

What happens on 10 January 2027
Unless USTR acts again, an excluded product entered on or after 12:01 a.m. ET on 10 January 2027 is classified back under its list heading and pays the list duty: 25% for Lists 1–3, 7.5% for List 4A. What decides the rate is the date of entry (or withdrawal from warehouse), not the date of shipment, so goods on the water in early January need to clear before the deadline to keep the exclusion.
The notice says USTR "may continue to consider further extensions or additional modifications as appropriate". It does not commit to anything. The last three extensions were for 90 days, for about a year and now for two months, and the November 2025 arrangement with China was the stated basis of the previous one. Our engine already shows the return of the list rate as an upcoming change dated 10 January 2027 on the 29 whole lines, and a product on your Watchlist is re-priced when its rate changes.
For a business that imports one of these lines regularly, the size of the step is simple to work out: the list rate times the customs value. On $100,000 of rail-car air brakes (8607.21.1000) the duty goes from $16,100 to $41,100 in our engine; on $100,000 of nonwoven surgical gowns (6210.10.5010), from $12,500 to $20,000. MPF, HMF and freight come on top.
How to check your product, step by step
- 1
Get the full 10-digit HTSUS line
Exclusions name statistical lines, and two lines under one 8-digit subheading can be treated differently.
- 2
Search the table above
Type the first 6 or 8 digits to see every exclusion in the subheading. No match means no exclusion: the list rate applies.
- 3
Read the coverage column
Whole line: every product in the line is excluded. Described product only: compare your goods with each element of the description.
- 4
Confirm the product is of China
The Section 301 duties and their exclusions apply to products of China, under the normal country-of-origin rules.
- 5
Price the rest of the stack
MFN, the forced-labor tariff, Section 232 and any AD/CVD still apply. The calculator shows every layer for your line.
- 6
Note the end date
Plan entries before 11:59 p.m. ET on 9 January 2027, and watch the Federal Register for a further extension.

Frequently asked questions
Were the China Section 301 exclusions extended in November 2026?
Yes. USTR's notice FR Doc. 2026-22925 (filed for public inspection on 9 November 2026 and published on 10 November 2026) extends all 178 current exclusions under headings 9903.88.69 and 9903.88.70. The extension covers goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, from 12:01 a.m. eastern time on 10 November 2026 until 11:59 p.m. eastern time on 9 January 2027.
What happens on 10 January 2027 if USTR does not extend the exclusions again?
The exclusions end, and goods entered from that date pay their Section 301 list rate again: 25% for Lists 1, 2 and 3, and 7.5% for List 4A, on top of MFN duty and any other tariff. The notice says USTR may consider further extensions or other modifications, but it promises none. In our engine on 10 November 2026, rail-car air brakes 8607.21.1000 from China go from 16.1% today to 41.1% from 10 January 2027.
How do I check whether my product is excluded?
Start from the 10-digit HTSUS statistical line, then search the 178 exclusions in HTSUS chapter 99, U.S. note 20(vvv)(i)–(iv) and 20(www), or in the table on this page. If the exclusion names the line alone (27 exclusions, covering 29 lines), every product in that line is excluded. If it describes a product (151 exclusions), only goods that match the description are excluded. USTR's notice says the scope of each exclusion is governed by those 10-digit numbers and product descriptions.
How do importers claim a Section 301 exclusion on the entry?
By reporting the exclusion heading instead of the Section 301 list heading: 9903.88.69 for the 164 exclusions in note 20(vvv), or 9903.88.70 for the 14 solar-equipment exclusions in note 20(www), together with the product's 10-digit chapter 1–97 statistical number. Chapter 99 statistical note 1(a) of HTSUS Revision 22 requires the chapter 99 number in addition to the chapter 1–97 number, and the list headings 9903.88.01–.04 and 9903.88.15 apply 'except as provided in' heading 9903.88.69. USTR's notice says CBP will issue entry instructions; we had not seen them on 10 November 2026, so confirm the details with your customs broker.
Does a Section 301 exclusion also remove the 12.5% forced-labor tariff?
No. The exclusion notes name only the List 1, 2, 3 and 4A duties (headings 9903.88.01–.04 and 9903.88.15). MFN duty, the forced-labor Section 301 tariff that has applied since 24 July 2026, any Section 232 duty and any anti-dumping or countervailing duty are unaffected. In our engine on 10 November 2026, excluded lines from China still pay the 12.5% forced-labor tariff unless the line is exempt from it on other grounds.
Why does the calculator show 0% Section 301 for some excluded products and the full rate for others?
An HTS code can prove a whole-line exclusion but not a described one. For the 29 statistical lines that are excluded in full, our engine charges 0% Section 301 until 9 January 2027 and shows the list rate as an upcoming change from 10 January 2027. For the 151 described exclusions, it keeps the list rate in the total and adds a note naming the exclusion, because the code alone cannot tell whether your product matches the description.
Can I still apply for a new Section 301 exclusion?
Not through this notice. FR Doc. 2026-22925 extends the 178 exclusions already in force and opens no process for new requests. The exclusions are available to any importer whose product meets the description; there is nothing to apply for to use one.
