Executive Order 14358: Modifying Reciprocal Tariff Rates Consistent With the Economic and Trade Arrangement Between the United States and the People's Republic of China

President: Donald J. Trump

Modified China reciprocal rates and extended exclusions to implement a bilateral economic and trade arrangement.

Status: Partly revoked. Sources: Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump, Supreme Court opinion, February 20, 2026 · Executive Order 14389, February 20, 2026, sections 1–2 · Executive Order 14358, signed text.

Is Executive Order 14358 still in effect? Partly. The Supreme Court rejected IEEPA tariffs in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump on February 20, 2026; EO 14389 ended those duties the same day. Section 3’s trade-emergency monitoring and recommendations survive; the IEEPA tariff provisions no longer operate.

What does Executive Order 14358 do?

This action formed part of the 2025–2026 tariff framework. On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court held that IEEPA does not authorize presidential tariffs; EO 14389 then ended the additional ad valorem duties imposed under the listed IEEPA orders. Measures based on other statutes and the all-country de minimis suspension require separate analysis.

Administration position: The order’s descriptions of trade conditions, retaliation, drug flows or foreign conduct are administration findings. Its legal effect depends on the authority invoked, the exact tariff schedule changes, later presidential actions and controlling court judgments.

Reading the operative provisions of Executive Order 14358

EO 14358 modified reciprocal tariff rates and extended specified exclusions as part of an economic and trade arrangement with China. It implemented agreed changes through U.S. customs instructions and set the duration of the adjustment. The Federal Register text of EO 14358 is the source for covered goods, rates and dates.

Tariff exclusions are product-specific and may depend on a precise classification or an annex. They should not be generalized to all imports from China. Importers need to track the effective period and any later amendment, since an exclusion may expire even while a broader trade arrangement remains under discussion. Customs treatment also can include other statutory duties that the order did not remove.

The temporary reciprocal-rate changes have expired, and the order’s status is completed or expired. Later presidential actions and the 2026 IEEPA decision must be read separately. A negotiated arrangement can continue to shape diplomacy even after a tariff provision expires, but customs officials apply the legal rate in force on the entry date. This distinction keeps the trade-policy history separate from current duty calculations.
