Under Section 122 of the Trade Expansion Act, a <strong>temporary 10% ad valorem tariff<\/strong> has been imposed on most imports into the United States for 150 days. This measure replaces the previously invalidated IEEPA tariffs and adds another layer of complexity for companies sourcing from overseas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, existing trade remedies remain fully in force. Duties under <strong>Section 301<\/strong>, <strong>Section 232<\/strong>, as well as anti-dumping (AD) and countervailing duties (CVD), continue to apply without change. For importers, this means cumulative tariff exposure is still a serious cost factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this rapidly evolving environment, logistics is no longer just about transportation\u2014it is about <strong>risk management, compliance strategy, and cost optimization<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is where <strong>BRF Logistics<\/strong> steps in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a professional freight forwarder based in China with strong expertise in U.S.-bound cargo, BRF Logistics provides comprehensive <strong>DDP (Entrega con derechos de aduana pagados)<\/strong> solutions that simplify trade under these new regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Understanding the Impact of the New 10% Tariff<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The temporary 10% tariff applies broadly to most imported goods entering the United States. For many businesses, this translates into:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Increased landed costs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More complex customs declarations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Higher cash flow pressure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Greater compliance risks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When layered on top of Section 301 tariffs\u2014originally introduced during the U.S.-China trade dispute\u2014and Section 232 duties targeting steel and aluminum, the cumulative impact can significantly affect profit margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In short: <strong>Every dollar and every day now matters more than ever.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"7954\" src=\"http:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/40HQ-aluminum-alloy-fence-from-Cambodia-to-Houston-USA2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7954\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/40HQ-aluminum-alloy-fence-from-Cambodia-to-Houston-USA2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/40HQ-aluminum-alloy-fence-from-Cambodia-to-Houston-USA2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/40HQ-aluminum-alloy-fence-from-Cambodia-to-Houston-USA2.jpg 959w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"7835\" src=\"http:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/sea-port3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/sea-port3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/sea-port3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/sea-port3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/sea-port3.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"649\" data-id=\"7942\" src=\"http:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Multi-country-warehouse3-1024x649.jpg\" alt=\"Multi-country warehouse\" class=\"wp-image-7942\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Multi-country-warehouse3-1024x649.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Multi-country-warehouse3-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Multi-country-warehouse3-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Multi-country-warehouse3-1536x973.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/brf-logistics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Multi-country-warehouse3.jpg 1705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Why DDP Is the Smartest Move in 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freightslogistics.com\/tag\/final-mile-expedite\/\" title=\"\">DDP (Entrega con derechos de aduana pagados)<\/a> means the seller or logistics provider takes full responsibility for shipping goods to the buyer\u2019s final destination, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Transporte mar\u00edtimo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gastos de destino<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Despacho de aduanas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Duties and taxes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entrega final<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under DDP, the importer avoids direct interaction with customs procedures and tariff calculations.
