Tariff treatment, trade-agreement coverage, and live monthly U.S. import/export data for Hong Kong.
As of February 2026, the United States imported $154.9M/month and exported $7.3B/month with Hong Kong. This page covers Hong Kong's customs status, applicable trade agreements, and the practical tariff treatment U.S. importers and exporters should expect.
Hong Kong has historically been treated as a separate customs territory from mainland China under US trade law, though this status has been subject to significant policy changes following the 2020 National Security Law. The US revoked Hong Kong's special trade status in 2020, meaning Hong Kong-origin goods no longer receive preferential treatment distinct from Chinese goods, and export controls have been tightened. Trade professionals must carefully assess country-of-origin determinations and applicable export licensing requirements for shipments involving Hong Kong.
