Increased Tariff Costs: The US has imposed additional tariffs on a variety of Chinese - made science - technology and electronic products. For example, the tariff rate on electronic power conversion products has increased from 25% to 35%13. The 14 - nanometer and below - process chips will see their tariff rate rise from 25% to 50% starting from May 1, 202512. These increased costs are ultimately passed on to customers, making these products significantly more expensive in the US market13.
Rising Shipping Costs: Due to the trade conflict, some shipping companies may face additional port service fees when their ships enter US ports1. If the "port service fee" policy for Chinese - built or registered ships proposed by the Trump administration is implemented, each ship may have to pay up to $1.5 million in fees, which will lead to a significant increase in shipping costs1.
Disrupted Supply Chains: The tariff increase has forced some Chinese manufacturers to consider moving their production to other countries or regions, such as Vietnam, Mexico, and the Middle East, to avoid US tariffs13. This will lead to changes in the supply chain of science - technology and electronic products, and the original direct trade between China and the US may become indirect trade via "third - countries", increasing the transportation distance and time.
Unstable Supply: US importers of science - technology and electronic products may face unstable supply due to changes in the supply chain. Some small and medium - sized suppliers may be unable to bear the increased costs and exit the market, resulting in a reduction in the supply of certain products.
Reduced Competitiveness: The increase in tariffs has led to a rise in the prices of Chinese - made science - technology and electronic products in the US market, making them less competitive compared to domestic products and products from other countries. This may lead to a decrease in the market share of Chinese products in the US.
Shift in Market Demand: As the prices of Chinese - made products rise, US consumers may turn to products from other countries or domestic products, causing a shift in market demand.
The following table summarizes the above - mentioned impacts:
| Impact Aspect | Specific Performance |
|---|
| Costs | Tariff costs increase, and shipping costs may also rise due to potential port service fees. |
| Supply Chains | Supply chains are disrupted, with production possibly being transferred overseas, and supply stability is affected. |
| Market Competitiveness | Product competitiveness declines, and market demand may shift to other countries' or domestic products. |
