What tariff does the U.S. charge on capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards from Taiwan?

In 2025, capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards imported from Taiwan paid an effective tariff rate of 8.4%, calculated as duties collected divided by customs value, which captures Section 301/232 overlays and program use that statutory rates miss.

What does freight add on capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards from Taiwan?

Cost, insurance, and freight ran 1.96% of customs value on capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards from Taiwan in 2025. That stacks on the duty, so the landed cost runs higher than the effective rate alone implies.

U.S. Imports of Capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards From Taiwan

In 2025, U.S. importers brought in $1.1B of capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards from Taiwan, paying an effective tariff rate of 8.4%. That makes Taiwan the largest named source of this family, at 19.3% of tracked capacitors, resistors, and circuit boards imports. The family-wide effective rate is 15.36%, so Taiwan's goods pay 7 points less than average. Freight and insurance add 1.96% on top of customs value. Tracked-family figures are a floor on total bilateral trade, from USITC DataWeb data.
