President Trump has extended a 90-day pause on most China tariffs, delaying the imposition of steep levies until mid-November 2025. During this period, both the U.S. and China are rolling back several trade penalties, maintaining certain tariffs while continuing negotiations. The move seeks stability in trade relations and includes cooperative steps to address fentanyl trafficking.

Key Takeaways

  • The U.S. is postponing higher tariffs on Chinese goods for 90 more days.

  • China is suspending retaliatory tariffs and increasing fentanyl controls during the pause.

  • Both countries are maintaining baseline tariffs while continuing trade negotiations.
