2020年2月18日，国务院关税税则委员会（以下简称“税委会”）发布税委会公告〔2020〕2 号《国务院关税税则委员会关于开展对美加征关税商品市场化采购排除工作的公告》（以下简称《公告》）。根据《公告》，自2020年3月2日起，税委会接受相关中国境内企业申请，开展对美加征关税商品市场化采购排除工作。

On Feb. 18, 2020, the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council (“CTC”) issued the Announcement on the Implementation of the Exclusion of U.S. Products Subject to Additional Tariffs in Market-oriented Procurement (CTC Announcement No.2 [2020], “Announcement”). According to the Announcement, CTC starts to accept the relevant Chinese domestic enterprises’ applications for the exclusion of U.S. products subject to additional tariffs in the market-oriented procurement from March 2, 2020.  

不同于此前已经实施的两批排除工作，此次《公告》出台的背景一方面是满足我国消费者日益增长的需要，鼓励支持企业基于市场以及商业考虑从美国进口商品，让世界各国优质商品在中国市场公平竞争；另一方面是为了加快受理排除申请，为中美第一阶段经贸协议的落实创造条件。因此，此次排除申请的通过率将大大提高，有相关进口业务的企业可以抓住此次机会提前做好准备。

Different from the two batches of the exclusions already implemented, on one hand，the background of this Announcement is to meet the growing needs of Chinese consumers, encourage and support the enterprises to import the products from U.S. based on the market and commercial considerations, so that high-quality products from various countries in the world can compete fairly in domestic market. On the other, this Announcement is issued for accelerating the acceptance of exclusion applications, and creating conditions for the implementation of Phase One Trade Agreement Between U.S. and China. Therefore, the successful rate of the exclusion application this time will be greatly improved, and the enterprises engaged in the relevant import business can seize this opportunity to prepare for the exclusion applications in advance.
