Key takeaways
  • China has announced new rules on port fees
China has announced new rules on port fees specifically targeting US-owned, -operated, -built, or -flagged vessels docking at Chinese ports. These fees will start at approximately $56 per net ton beginning October 14, 2025, mirroring the US fees imposed on Chinese ships entering American ports. However, China has exempted Chinese-made ships owned by US companies from these fees, reflecting a nuanced approach amid escalating trade disputes. This move is part of a broader tit-for-tat strategy in the ongoing economic rivalry between the two powers.
