US Announces Delayed Tariffs on Chinese Semiconductors Amid Trade Tensions Escalating Between Washington and Beijing

Welcome to China Tariff News and Tracker, your essential update on the latest U.S.-China trade tensions under President Trump.

In a major development, the U.S. Trade Representative announced on December 23, 2025, that it has found China's aggressive push for semiconductor dominance—through massive state subsidies, forced technology transfers, and wage-suppressing practices—unreasonable and harmful to American commerce, according to the official Federal Register notice from USTR. This Section 301 investigation, launched in late 2024 under Biden and continued by Trump, labels Beijing's policies as actionable unfair trade practices that burden U.S. interests.

Yet, in a surprising delay, the new tariffs on Chinese semiconductor imports will start at zero percent right now and won't kick in until June 23, 2027—18 months away—with the exact rate to be revealed at least 30 days prior, as reported by STR Trade and CBS News. This comes on top of the existing 50 percent Section 301 tariff already hitting Chinese chips, giving U.S. firms a temporary breathing room amid Trump's broader tariff offensive.

Beijing fired back swiftly, with Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian calling the move an abuse of tariffs to suppress Chinese industry, disrupting global supply chains and harming everyone involved, per CGTN and CBS News coverage. Trump, who dubbed April 2, 2025, "Liberation Day" for sweeping tariff announcements on steel, autos, and more according to the Alliance for American Manufacturing, has kept the pressure on China despite a spring truce.

Bloomberg Television noted Washington is holding off for now, even after the accusations, signaling a calculated pause in the escalating chip war. Listeners, as 2025 wraps as the year of the tariff, this deferral could reshape supply chains—stay tuned for rate updates.
