Definition & Explanation

Section 301 of the U.S. Trade Act of 1974 authorizes the U.S. President to impose tariffs on imports when unfair or discriminatory trade practices are identified. Since 2018, the U.S. has wielded this tool extensively against Chinese goods, including electronics such as Bluetooth modules, in response to intellectual property protection and technology transfer concerns. For importers and freight forwarders, this results in additional duty rates that vary depending on product classification and the evolving trade environment.
