As of February 24, 2026, the United States has implemented a temporary 10% tariff on most imported goods under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. This action follows a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that invalidated earlier IEEPA tariff measures.
The administration has indicated that the tariff rate may increase to 15%, pending further guidance.
The Section 122 tariffs are in addition to existing duties and applies broadly, including to shipments that were previously considered de minimis or low‑value. The measure may remain in effect for up to 150 days.
Certain products and imports are excluded, including goods qualifying under the USMCA, as well as select critical minerals, energy products, and other sector‑specific exclusions.
In addition, other trade remedies—such as actions under Sections 232 and 301—may continue to be implemented independently of this measure. All existing Section 232, Section 301, and antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) cases remain in effect.
