US Plans to Impose Tariffs on Chinese Chips in Mid-2027

The Trump administration on Tuesday said it would slap tariffs ‍on Chinese ‍semiconductor imports starting in June 2027 ⁠at a rate to be announced at least ​a month in advance.

The announcement comes following a ‍year-long investigation into China's chip imports ⁠into the United States, launched by the Biden administration and led ⁠by the ​U.S. ⁠Trade Representative.

"China's targeting of the ‍semiconductor industry for dominance is unreasonable ‌and burdens or restricts U.S. commerce and thus ⁠is ​actionable," the ‍agency said in its release.
