Last Update: December 17, 2024
Dear Customer,
Emerald Technologies is actively monitoring the upcoming tariff increases on Chinese origin goods scheduled for January 1, 2025, and preparing for potential expansions that could affect additional regions. These changes will significantly impact supply chains, production costs, and pricing strategies, requiring proactive measures to minimize disruptions and maintain operational stability.
As detailed in 89 FR 76581, published on September 18, 2024, tariffs on specific items will increase from 25% to 50%. A list of affected items is attached for your review. The additional costs resulting from these tariffs will be passed through to customers to ensure alignment with the new economic conditions.
Please note that there could be additional tariff increases in the future as discussions are ongoing in the next administration for further tariffs in 2025 added on all goods of Chinese origin , along with potential tariffs on products imported from Mexico and Canada, adding further complexity to the trade landscape.
As tariff charges are incurred, we will notify you through your established process or collaborate with you to create one if necessary. If you have questions about how tariffs may affect your operations or need guidance, your Program Manager is available to assist.
We remain committed to monitoring this evolving situation and will provide updates as new information becomes available. Emerald is dedicated to helping you navigate these challenges and implement strategies that ensure your supply chain remains resilient and cost-efficient.
Thank you for your continued partnership. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or to discuss your specific needs.
