China Resumes Boeing Deliveries After U.S.–China Tariff Truce

A 90-day agreement to reduce tariffs has led Beijing to lift a month-long freeze on Boeing aircraft deliveries, allowing Chinese airlines to accept planes on flexible terms.

Discretion has been given for airlines to organise delivery on their own timing and terms, Reuters reported.

Overview

  • China has lifted its ban on Boeing aircraft deliveries following a temporary tariff reduction agreement with the United States.
  • The 90-day truce lowers U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports from 145% to 30% and Chinese tariffs on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%.
  • Chinese airlines and agencies have been granted discretion to schedule deliveries based on their operational needs.
  • Boeing plans to deliver around 50 jets to China in 2025, with 41 already in production or pre-built, avoiding costly rerouting to other buyers.
  • China remains a crucial market for Boeing, accounting for 20% of global aircraft demand over the next two decades.
