So, Bibles printed in China will not be impacted by increased tariffs. Glad this has been cleared up.
Trump administration: Bibles printed in China will be exempt from tariff hikes

The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative posted lists on Tuesday of items that will be subject to the upcoming tariff increases imposed by the U.S. on China as part of the ongoing trade war between the two nations.

Two lists, one going into effect on Sept. 1, the other on Dec. 15, detail $300 billion worth of goods from China that will be subject to a 10% tariff as part of President Trump's plan to deal more harshly with the communist nation. Absent, however, from both lists are Bibles, which are overwhelmingly produced in China.

The USTR confirmed to Christianity Todayon Tuesday that "certain products are being removed from the tariff list based on health, safety, national security, and other factors."
