The United States Trade Representative has announced the phased-in implementation of the additional 10% duty.  Initially, all list 4 items would start paying this duty on Sept. 1, 2019.    It has now been broken down to two lists, 4A and 4B.  List 4A goes into effect on Sept 1, 2019, and list 4B goes into effect Dec. 15, 2019.   
 
Please see attached lists for your reference.  Some items in the health, safety, and national security industries were taken off list 4 completely.  List 4B items include cell phones, laptops, video games , certain toys, computer monitors, and some items of footwear and clothing.
 
Once this is published in the Federal Register, we will provide details.
