Monitor and proactive approach to Section 301 investigation.
* Continued to monitor USTR modifications April 2025 to Section 301 including:
* On April 17th, the USTR issued a proposed action for assessing fees to foreign vessels. These fees are broken into 5 categories:
Annex I: Service Fee on Chinese Vessel Operators and Vessel Owners of China
Annex II: Service Fee on Vessel Operators of Chinese-Built Vessels
Annex III: Service Fee on Vessel Operators of Foreign-Built Vehicle Carriers
Annex IV: Restrictions on the use of foreign vessels to export liquified natural gas
Annex V: Tariffs on ship to shore cranes (STS)
* Section 301 allows the U.S. government to take action against unfair foreign trade practices.
* The USTR is currently investigating China's targeting of the maritime, logistics, and shipbuilding sectors for dominance, proposing potential fees and restrictions on Chinese vessels and operators.
* The United States Trade Representative (USTR) issued a Federal Register Notice to solicit comments on proposed actions to counter what USTR deems are Chinas unfair trade practices to dominate the maritime industry, including:
* The proposal stems from a petition filed last year from five major labor unions asking USTR to investigate Chinas practices in the shipbuilding, maritime and logistics sectors.
* The Biden administration found Chinas practices warranted taking trade action. The labor unions made several suggestions, including a fee imposed on Chinese-made ships that dock at U.S. ports to load or unload cargo, with the proceeds going to help fund shipbuilding in the United States.
* A service fee on Chinese maritime transport operators at a rate of up to $1,000,000 per entrance of any vessel of that operator to a U.S. port.
* A service fee on maritime transport operators with fleets comprised of Chinese-built vessels at a rate of up to $1,500,000 per vessel entrance to a U.S. port.
* A service fee on maritime transport operators with orders in Chinese shipyards or vessels expected to be delivered by Chinese shipyards over the next 24 months, at a rate up to up to $1,000,000 per vessel entrance to a U.S. port.
