The overall US tariff rate on Chinese imports has risen to 145%, a White House official has confirmed to CNBC.
The increase follows a new executive order from Donald Trump raising tariffs to 125%, up from 84%, reports The Guardian.
An additional 20% tariff, tied to measures targeting fentanyl-related imports, brings the total to its current level.
The move marks another escalation in US trade policy toward China.
