Summary

USTR invites comments from interested parties to inform the development of negotiations with China aimed at optimizing bilateral trade in non-sensitive products in order to promote reciprocity and balance in the U.S.-China trade relationship. In particular, comment is sought on the types of non-sensitive products that would benefit from favorable tariff modifications by both sides, and considerations around the design of a new government-to-government mechanism--a U.S.-China Board of Trade--to manage bilateral trade optimization on an ongoing basis.
