Applicable Tariff Actions
Status as of October 2026Additional duties of 10% or 12.5% on imports from roughly 60 economies (covering about 99.4% of U.S. imports) for failing to adopt or effectively enforce a forced-labor import ban. Effective 12:01 a.m. EDT July 24, 2026 — the same minute the Section 122 surcharge expired — as the replacement across-the-board baseline. Separate legal authority from the IEEPA tariffs and unaffected by the 2026 IEEPA ruling. Goods already subject to Section 232 duties are exempt from this surcharge, as are goods entering free of duty under the USMCA and CAFTA-DR textile and apparel goods. Its legality is being challenged at the Court of International Trade (argued September 30, 2026); the duties remain in effect pending a ruling. Source
National-security tariffs on covered steel products from most sources, subject to country-specific exemptions. Unaffected by the 2026 IEEPA ruling. Source
National-security tariffs on covered aluminum products from most sources, subject to country-specific exemptions. Unaffected by the 2026 IEEPA ruling. Source
National-security tariffs on covered vehicles and parts from most sources, subject to country-specific exemptions. Unaffected by the 2026 IEEPA ruling. Source
National-security tariffs on covered copper products (semi-finished copper and copper-intensive derivatives) from most sources, subject to country-specific exemptions. Added under the 2026 Section 232 restructuring; unaffected by the 2026 IEEPA ruling. Source
100% default tariff on patented pharmaceutical products and associated ingredients (HTS 9903.04.60–.70). Products of the EU, Japan, South Korea, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein pay 15%; UK products, generics, and companies with approved most-favored-nation pricing arrangements pay 0%; companies with Commerce-approved onshoring plans pay 20%. Effective July 31, 2026 for 17 named companies and September 29, 2026 for all other importers. Unaffected by the 2026 IEEPA ruling. Source
15% tariff on polysilicon derivatives such as ingots, wafers, and solar cells and modules (HTS 9903.45.30–.36), plus minimum import prices; raw polysilicon is covered by the minimum-price program only. For the EU, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein the combined rate is capped at 15%; UK products face 10%. Proclaimed August 6, 2026 and scheduled to take effect December 4, 2026 — not yet in force. Source
Replaced the invalidated IEEPA tariffs as an across-the-board surcharge, raised to 15% (the statutory maximum) effective February 24, 2026. Its 150-day statutory authority expired by operation of law at 12:01 a.m. EDT on July 24, 2026, and Congress did not extend it, so it is no longer in effect. (A May 7, 2026 Court of International Trade ruling against it was stayed on June 11, 2026 and then overtaken by the expiry.) A new Section 301 forced-labor action took effect the same minute as the replacement baseline. Source
Struck down by the Supreme Court on February 20, 2026, which held that IEEPA does not authorize tariffs. No longer in effect. Source
