U.S. to Cut Tariffs on Imports from China (on Package Goods)
Here's the rewritten article:
It's all happening! On May 14, Eastern Time, USA (07:01 Moscow time), some drastic changes are underway. And here's the lowdown on what's gonna go down:
First off, the U.S. has said goodbye to the duty-free import of packages from China valued up to $800 as of May 2. That's because ol' Donald Trump claimed Chinese companies were taking advantage of this loophole to dodge tariffs. Consequently, Hong Kong Post put a pause on shipments to the U.S., but it's still cool to send documents.
But don't fret! On May 12, China and the U.S. agreed to a 90-day truce on tariffs. The U.S. will lower the tariffs on Chinese imports from an eye-watering 145% to a more reasonable 30%. On the other side, China will drop its tariffs on U.S. imports from 125% to 10%. A 10% basic import tariff will remain, but ain't nothing new there. So, from May 14, the agreement between the U.S. and China will be in swing.
