Key points by origin

  • Thailand vs China - the entire gap comes from the original 301 and AD/CVD layers - both countries pay the same 12.5% forced-labor tariff. If the product falls within the China AD/CVD scope, Thailand's advantage is overwhelming - even out of scope, it still saves 25 points.
  • Thailand vs India - only a 2.5-point gap, driven solely by India's own legislation (foreign trade policy amended on 2026-07-14 to ban forced-labor imports). If the India-US BTA is signed, Thailand's relative position may worsen.
  • Thailand watch list - ART negotiations unfinished - the "overcapacity" Section 301 investigation covers 16 economies including Thailand - the US exemption list for Thailand does not cover pulp-molded articles - transshipment is ineffective.

How to use the calculator

1. Switch origin with the buttons at the top (Thailand / China / India); 2. Edit the FOB value, ocean shipment, the two Section 301 toggles and the AD/CVD scenario - the line-by-line breakdown recalculates instantly; 3. The comparison table below automatically shows seven scenarios across the three origins at the same entered value, benchmarked against China without AD/CVD; 4. CNY conversion (editable rate) and duty-composition bars are built in.

Quoting recommendations

  • State rates as "current values" in US quotations, avoid fixed long-term prices, and keep validity within 60 days;
  • For Thailand origin, flag the pending ART and "overcapacity" 301 risks;
  • For China origin claiming out-of-scope, complete an English scope assessment before quoting;
  • Transshipment is not viable - CBP closely screens China-origin goods routed via Southeast Asia, and evasion may trigger severe penalties.

三国差异要点 / Key Points by Origin

🇹🇭 泰国 Thailand

  1. 无老 301 — 原 301 清单仅针对中国。
  2. 新 301 强迫劳动 +12.5% 9903.05.77 — 泰国因未实施/未有效执行强迫劳动进口禁令,被列入 12.5% 高档,与中国同档。这是泰国税负的主体。
  3. 无热成型模压纤维双反 — 该双反令只覆盖中国与越南。
  4. 唯一潜在 AD 风险:纸盘令 A‑549‑849 — 泰国纸盘反倾销税 5.57%–73.17%(无 CVD)。但该令范围定义为「由纸卷 / 纸张 / 纸板裁切成型」的盘子,通常归 4823.69.0040;纸浆直接模压成型的制品(4823.70)原则上不在该令范围内(须以英文 scope 文本为准,必要时申请 scope ruling)。
  5. 合计 12.5%(不含纸盘 AD)。

🇨🇳 中国 China

  1. 老 301 +25% 9903.88.03 — 2018 年起,无日落条款。
  2. 新 301 强迫劳动 +12.5% 9903.05.31 — 与中国同为最高档;这一层泰国完全一样。
  3. 热成型模压纤维双反 A‑570‑182 / C‑570‑183 — 2026‑01‑27 税令,至少 5 年;AD 49.01%–477.90%,CVD 62.66%–319.92%,最高综合 540.63%。
  4. 合计 37.5%(不含双反);含双反 149%–578%。

🇮🇳 印度 India

  1. 无老 301、无双反。
  2. 新 301 强迫劳动 +10% 9903.05.44 — 印度 2026‑07‑14 修订外贸政策禁止强迫劳动产品进口,被下调至 10% 低档,比泰国/中国低 2.5 个百分点。
  3. 合计 10% — 三国中最低。
  4. 印美 BTA 仍在谈,尚未生效。

泰国税负结构的本质 / The real structure

  1. 泰国 vs 中国的差距全部来自"老 301"和"双反"两层,与强迫劳动关税无关——两国在 9903.05 项下同为 12.5%。
  2. 所以:只要产品落入中国热成型模压纤维双反范围,泰国就是压倒性优势(12.5% vs 149%–578%);如果不落入双反范围,泰国仍省 25 个百分点(12.5% vs 37.5%)。
  3. 泰国 vs 印度只差 2.5 个百分点(12.5% vs 10%)——泰国没有因为"生产地优势"拿到更低档,差别仅来自印度主动立法。印度若立法完成或一旦 BTA 签署,泰国相对劣势可能扩大。
  4. 泰国商界(Thai Chamber of Commerce)认为 12.5% 不会大幅削弱出口竞争力,主因是主要竞争国税率相近。

泰国前瞻风险 / Thailand watch list

  1. ART(互惠贸易协定)谈判未完成 — 泰方称因涉及敏感议题与国内法律限制,进程可能慢于邻国。一旦签署可能获更优税率,但目前无任何优惠。
  2. 「产能过剩」301 调查 — 泰国明确在 16 个被调查经济体名单内(与中国、欧盟、越南、马来西亚、印尼、日韩同列),结果未公布,可能追加关税。
  3. 豁免清单不覆盖纸制品 — 泰国约 2,120 个税则项获豁免(集成电路、天然橡胶、树薯粉、菠萝、椰子加工品、甘蔗糖等),纸浆模塑制品不在其中。
  4. 转口无效 — 仅改变运输路线、开票国或重新包装不改变原产地;经泰国转口的中国产品仍按中国原产征税,且属 CBP 重点稽查对象( evasion 可能面临巨额罚则)。
  5. 建议 — 报价时把 12.5% 写成"现行值",并注明 ART 与产能过剩 301 两项待决风险;不要写死长单价。

三国共用规则 / Shared rules

  1. 基础税率 Free — 同一税号,三国 Column 1 General 均为 Free;税负全部来自 Chapter 99。
  2. IEEPA 关税已废止 — 2026‑02‑20 最高法院裁定 IEEPA 无权征税并退税;Section 122 的 10% 附加费 2026‑07‑24 到期。
  3. Section 232 不涉及 — 纸制品无 232 措施;新 301 与 232 不叠加(与老 301、双反叠加)。
  4. 手续费 — MPF 0.3464%(FY2027 起 $34.58–$670.86);HMF 0.125%(仅海运)。美国无增值税/消费税。
  5. 退税 — 各项 301 可 drawback;AD/CVD 不可。
  6. 申报顺序 — Chapter 98 → Chapter 99 附加税(Section 301 在前)→ Chapter 1‑97 归类。顺序错会导致报关单被拒。

给不同对象的一句话结论 / One-liner conclusions

  1. 给美国进口商:"泰国产 = 12.5%;中国产 = 37.5%,若落入模压纤维双反范围则为 149%–578%。"
  2. 给泰国供应商:别指望比印度便宜——你们同属强迫劳动 301 项下,泰国 12.5% vs 印度 10%,差的只有 2.5 个点;泰国真正的优势是对华。
  3. 给国内报价:对美出口若走 4823.70.0020 且为热压成型产品,双反已实质阻断;走非热压成型/非涉案形态需先做 scope 判断。
  4. 风险底线:三国税率都建立在"现行有效"的联邦公报公告上;Section 301 无日落条款但可被修改,报价有效期建议不超过 60 天。

FAQ

How much US duty applies to Thailand-origin molded fiber products?

Currently 12.5% in total - only the new Section 301 forced-labor tier (HTS 9903.05.77, same tier as China). No original Section 301 (China only) and no thermoformed molded-fiber AD/CVD (covers China and Vietnam only). The only potential risk is the paper-plate order A-549-849 (AD 5.57%-73.17%, no CVD), but pulp directly molded into 4823.70 articles is generally out of its scope.

Why is Thailand's advantage only against China?

Thailand and India sit in the same forced-labor 301 framework - Thailand 12.5% vs India 10%, a 2.5-point gap. Thailand's real advantage is against China - 37.5% even without AD/CVD, and 149%-578% if within the thermoformed molded-fiber orders.

Can transshipment via Thailand avoid China-origin duties?

No. Changing the routing, invoicing country or repackaging does not change origin. China-origin goods transshipped through Thailand are still dutied at China rates and are a CBP enforcement priority.

How should these rates be stated in quotations?

State 12.5% as the "current rate" and flag two pending risks - the Thailand ART (reciprocal trade agreement) is not yet signed, and the "overcapacity" Section 301 investigation (Thailand is on the 16-economy list) may add duties. Keep quote validity within 60 days.
