- Duration: Up to 150 days (currently through July 24, 2026)
- Scope: Applies to most goods entered for consumption into the United States
- Basis: Calculated on the U.S. customs value at time of entry
Although earlier communications referenced a possible 15% ceiling, current CBP implementation guidance reflects an applied rate of 10%, subject to further administrative clarification.
Interaction with Existing Tariffs
The temporary 10% surcharge does not automatically replace existing trade measures. Unless expressly suspended, previously imposed duties — including Section 232, Section 301, anti-dumping (AD), countervailing (CVD), or other trade remedies — remain in force and may apply cumulatively.
Accordingly, the total effective duty may include:
Base duty (if applicable)
- 10% temporary surcharge
- Any additional trade remedies (if applicable)
Final duty treatment must be determined based on:
- HS classification
- Country of origin
- Applicable trade measures
- Entry date
Recommended Actions
We strongly recommend:
- Immediate HS code verification
- Origin determination review
- Confirmation of Importer of Record and Incoterms
- Recalculation of landed cost for shipments entering on/after February 24
Each shipment should be assessed individually to determine total duty exposure.
