CUSTOMS TARIFF OF CHINA

The following is the new Chinese Tariff of Import Duties as agreed upon in 1902 between the British Special Commissioner for commercial negotiations in China and the Chinese Commissioners. The Tariff is now in operation, but negotiations are still proceeding with the representatives of other Powers, and until these negotiations are completed the Tariff cannot be corrected with authority.

Note.—If any of the articles enumerated in this Tariff are imported in dimensions exceeding those specified, the Duty is to be calculated in proportion to the measurements as defined.
