<\/p>\n

\tApple scored a victory in a long-running battle to avoid tariffs on goods imported from China, as US authorities granted an exemption for its Watch devices.<\/p>\n

The exemption applies to finished Watch products rather than just components, and will allow Apple to duck a 7.5 per cent tariff applied to certain imports from China.<\/p>\n

Apple originally faced a 15 per cent tariff on its smartwatches, but US President Donald Trump in January halved the rate for certain goods.<\/p>\n

The company has long sought to sidestep trade tensions between the two countries. In December 2019, it narrowly avoided a 15 per cent tariff on its iPhone, iPad and MacBook laptops [1] after President Trump suspended the fees following the signing of a new trade agreement with China.<\/p>\n

In its application to exempt the Watch, Apple stated there was no comparable product available from sources within the US. It added it was unable to identify a supply source outside of China which was able to meet US demand for the product.<\/p>\n

Requests for waivers of tariffs on imports of finished AirPods, HomePod and iMac desktop computer products, as well as component parts for its iPhone, remain under review.<\/p>\n
