Effective 14 May 2025, U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports will fall from 145% to 30%, China will reduce its tariffs on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%.
The mad rush to clear delayed cargo, move normal peak season freight, and pull in early orders has begun.
The combination of surging demand, limited vessel availability, and container shortages in Asia is straining the system. As freight moves again, U.S. ports and rail systems are expected to clog, leading to further delays and higher costs.
Carriers have already raised rates and implemented peak season surcharges across all TPEB lanes. Some surcharges with more hikes likely.
This 90-day window is crucial. Monitoring freight updates, planning orders strategically, and preparing for renewed tariff hikes will be essential to managing costs and avoiding disruption.
