The 2022 tariff adjustments could affect companies that import and export taxable goods and services with China. Foreign stakeholders should pay attention to these changes to better tap into China’s growing consumer markets.
Preparing for RCEP implementation
Among the 29 countries that will enjoy conventional duty rates for exports to China, nine of them – Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam – are among the 14 RCEP members.China will reduce tariffs on a wide range of goods imported from these nine countries starting from January 1, 2022. As a result of this latest move, more than 90 percent of the goods traded among RCEP members will be tariff-free, experts have said. This will promote the growth of regional trade and investment, according to the MOF.
