China resumes deliveries of Boeing aircraft.
Get ready for the skies to welcome more Boeing planes, thanks to China lifted its buying ban! According to a recent report, following the US-China tariff agreement, China has given its airlines the green light to purchase Boeing aircraft once more. This move is expected to bring an instant boost to the company. Approximately 50 Boeing jets are slated for delivery to China this year.
Officials in Beijing have started communicating with domestic airlines and government agencies, clarifying that deliveries of US-made aircraft can resume. The airlines have been empowered to arrange deliveries according to their convenience and conditions.
In January, the US and China signed a 90-day truce, easing the tension between the two giants in their intensive trade war.
Uniformly, Boeing has kept mum about the development, and the Chinese civil aviation authority did not respond to a request for comment. For Boeing, China is a crucial market, accounting for approximately 10% of its commercial order book and a rapidly expanding aviation sector.
Earlier in 2025, China ceased deliveries of Boeing aircraft in retaliation to high US tariffs on Chinese goods.
Projections suggest that China will be responsible for 20% of global aircraft demand over the next two decades. In 2018, nearly a quarter of Boeing's production was sold in China. However, the US plane maker has not announced significant orders in China in recent years owing to trade tensions and self-inflicted issues.
Back in 2019, China was the first country to ground the 737 Max after two fatal accidents. Trade disputes with the Biden and Trump administrations also diverted Chinese orders towards the European competitor, Airbus.
Given the strategic importance of China as a market, this resumption of deliveries could mean a significant relief for Boeing.
