On October 23, 2019, the U.S. Trade Representative announced that an exclusion process for the List 4A products will open on October 31, 2019. The deadline for submitting an exclusion request is January 31, 2020. The products on List 4A (Annex A to Notice of Modification) are currently subject to a 15% additional tariff. Products for which exclusion requests are granted will be excluded from the application of the additional 15% tariff. The exclusion requests must be submitted through an online portal.
