CCA to request for waiver of import tariffs on uncombed cotton

The China Cotton Association (CCA) will request the US government to waive off the import duties on uncombed cotton from the United States. The Ministry of Finance posted a list of goods, including cotton that has not been carded or combed, at the end of May that could be eligible for waivers on tariffs that China imposed in July on U.S. goods as part of the China-U.S. trade war.

China is a major importer of cotton from the U.S. and tariffs of 25 per cent implemented on imports last year have significantly reduced that trade. In the first half of the 2018/19 marketing year, China imported only 11 per cent of its cotton from the United States, a decline from the 45 per cent imported in the same period in the previous marketing year.
