Yes. Chewing gum originating in China is generally subject to Section 301 tariffs in addition to the standard column 1 duty rate. Importers should confirm the current Section 301 list status and applicable rate with a licensed customs broker, as the product's classification under 1704100000 places it within the scope of those measures.
Chewing gum must comply with FDA food safety regulations, including the use of approved food-grade gum base components, permitted sweeteners, and GRAS or approved flavorings. The product is subject to FDA prior notice requirements under the Bioterrorism Act, and FDA may detain shipments that lack adequate ingredient documentation or that contain unapproved additives. Consulting a licensed customs broker or regulatory specialist is advisable before first importation.
