A summary of the taxation of major PU raw materials due to the Sino-US trade war


On May 10, 2019, the United States imposed additional tariffs on $200 billion worth of imports from China, and the additional tax was raised from 10% to 25% . And threatened that the tariff increase will continue to increase, and the next round will impose tariffs on goods worth 300 billion U.S. dollars. China reacted quickly, and the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council issued an announcement that from June 1, 2019, it will increase the tariff rate on US$60 billion worth of imported goods from the United States, and implement additional tariffs of 25%, 20% or 10%. .

This time China took a tough attitude, and the official media issued declarations such as “I don’t want to fight, but I am not afraid of fighting, and I have to fight if necessary” and “Talk, the door is open; fight, stay with me to the end.” After the release of countermeasures, the three major U.S. stock indexes (Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq Composite Index and S&P 500 Index) all plummeted by more than 2%. However, it is worth noting that on the first trading day after U.S. President Trump announced on Twitter that he would continue to increase tariffs, China’s Shanghai Composite Index, Shenzhen Component Index and ChiNext also closed badly.

This article only lists the taxation of the main PU raw materials involved in the current trade war, hoping to provide a reference for practitioners.
