Tariff policy on Chinese-origin goods has tightened steadily since 2018. Jadewell runs a second plant in Dai An Industrial Park, Hai Duong, Vietnam. Same molds, same resin specifications, same inspection protocol, different country of origin.
Lower Duties
Duty lands per HTS code, not per shipment. PET and HDPE bottles (HTS 3923.30.00) carry 15.5 percent from Vietnam against 40.5 percent from China. Closures and caps (HTS 3923.50.00) carry 17.8 percent against 42.8 percent.
Uncompromised Quality
Our Vietnam plant runs the same molds, resins, and quality checks as our China facility.
Reliable Supply Chain
Both plants run to the same quality standard, and the same team handles your order from first quote to final delivery regardless of which one fills it.
Reviewed August 21, 2026. Rates on Chinese and Vietnamese goods moved twice this year: the Section 122 baseline took effect February 24 and the Section 301 replacement took effect July 24.
The 10 Percent Baseline Tariff Sunset on July 24, 2026
The blanket 10 percent tariff added under Section 122 of the Trade Act expired by law after 150 days, as required by statute. It took effect February 24, 2026 and lapsed on schedule at 12:01 a.m. Eastern on July 24, 2026, with USTR's replacement action taking effect at the same moment.

A 12.5 Percent Section 301 Tariff Replaced It the Same Morning
USTR completed its forced-labor enforcement review and imposed a Section 301 duty effective July 24, 2026, covering 60 economies and roughly 99.4 percent of U.S. imports. The action runs in tiers. Nineteen economies that have adopted forced-labor import bans sit at 10 percent. China and Vietnam both sit in the 12.5 percent tier, applied on top of existing duties. Unlike the Section 122 tariff it replaced, Section 301 carries no statutory expiration date.
USTR Section 301 tariff actionsThe Replacement Tariff Is Already in Court
Twenty-five states filed suit in the U.S. Court of International Trade on August 3, 2026, arguing the action exceeds Section 301 authority and is not tied to actual forced-labor prevalence. A separate importer challenge was filed the day the duties took effect. No merits ruling has issued and the duties are still being collected. If the action is later vacated, refunds are not automatic. Importers who track entry dates and liquidation status now are the ones positioned to claim them.
