BITE July Data Updates: Entity, Tariff, Commodity & Screening List Updates at a Glance

July Data Updates

All Sanctions, Screening & Tariff Lists in One Place — Live in BITE

A month of change. ✅ Tariffs reinstated and raised across steel, aluminum, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, and more — often hitting 25–50%. ✅ Bilateral deals struck with China, South Korea, the UK, and others — each with bespoke tariff terms. ✅ EU goods now face a 15% flat tariff, with limited exemptions for key materials like aircraft, chemicals, and critical minerals. ✅ The de minimis import exemption ($800) was eliminated, meaning even low-value imports now face duties (effective Aug 29). ✅ A 40% “circumvention tariff” now applies to goods rerouted through third countries to evade tariffs. ✅ Legal challenges are pending, but all measures remain in force, creating a high-risk regulatory environment for global trade.

On the screening and sanctions front: ✅ BIS added 11 Chinese entities to its Entity List (advanced tech & semiconductors), while removing several Indian organizations. ✅ OFAC expanded its sanctions list, adding dozens of individuals and entities tied to corruption, cyber, and evasion networks. ✅ New Data Security Program rules are in effect — requiring heightened due diligence on foreign partners and IT vendors. ✅ The EU amended its high-risk third-country list, adding jurisdictions like Bolivia and the UK Virgin Islands.

BITE is up-to-date on all of these July changes — searchable, filterable, and usable.
