US Tariff Rate Lookup by HS Code and Country (2026)

Short version: dairy and alcohol pay 50%. Vehicles, steel, aluminum, and copper do not. Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, the first-ever use of that statute, added a 50% ad valorem duty on certain Canadian-origin goods. It was set for 12:01 a.m. ET August 19, 2026, suspended three days by a proclamation signed August 18, then took effect at 12:01 a.m. ET August 22, 2026 after talks collapsed on August 21. CBP’s implementing guidance, CSMS #69606660, names five Chapter 99 subheadings.

Carries the 50%: subheadings 9903.03.12, 9903.03.13 and 9903.03.14, headlined by dairy and alcoholic beverages, plus a broad retaliation annex covering honey, plants, wood products, textiles and apparel, tools, furniture and sporting goods.

Carries 0%, not 50%: subheadings 9903.03.15 and 9903.03.16, covering articles of steel, aluminum and copper, passenger vehicles and light trucks, semiconductors, patented pharmaceuticals, and civil aircraft with their engines, parts and ground flight simulators. These are carved out because Section 232 duties already apply to them, so despite the third proclamation being named the motor-vehicles action, Canadian vehicles do not pay this 50%.

Also excluded: energy, potash, fish, critical minerals, and Chapter 98 entries other than 9802.00.40, .50, .60 and .80. USMCA origin does not exempt covered goods, and liability attaches on entry for consumption or withdrawal from warehouse, not on ship date, so a shipment that left Canada before August 22 but enters after it is still covered. Canada has announced dollar-for-dollar counter-tariffs beginning September 8, aimed at steel, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment, pulp and paper and electronics. Confirm your specific line and its Chapter 99 treatment with your broker before filing.

Not yet, it is still a proposal. U.S. negotiators want to raise the required North American vehicle content from 75% to 82%, with 50% required to originate in the U.S. specifically. Vehicles that fail USMCA preference rules under a tightened standard could face the non-preferential auto rate, reported at 27.5% (2.5% MFN plus 25% Section 232). This is separate from Section 338 and is under review, not in force.

Only if you import phosphate fertilizer from Morocco. Presidential Proclamation 11038, published in the Federal Register July 2, 2026, declares an emergency and suspends duties, including AD/CVD, on Moroccan phosphate fertilizer for up to 8 months. It has no connection to the Canada Section 338 action.

Almost certainly yes. Effective July 24, 2026, USTR imposed Section 301 duties on imports from 60 economies, covering roughly 99.4% of everything the U.S. imports, after finding those economies failed to prohibit trade in goods made with forced labor. The duty is 10% on top of your normal MFN rate if your goods come from one of 17 economies with forced-labor commitments (including Canada, Mexico, India, the UK, and Bangladesh) and 12.5% for most others, including China and Brazil. Key exclusions: USMCA-qualifying goods from Canada and Mexico pay nothing under this program (non-qualifying goods from those countries still pay 10%), and products already under Section 232 duties (steel, aluminum, copper, autos and parts, timber) are excluded, along with raw materials, critical minerals, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, aerospace products, and certain agricultural goods. These duties replaced the expired Section 122 10% surcharge, so for many importers the net change is a shift from a flat 10% to 10% or 12.5% depending on country of origin. Unlike Section 122, there is no built-in expiration date. Check the Federal Register notice and the HTSUS Chapter 99 provisions for your specific HTS code before filing.

Your tariff rate is the import duty percentage applied to your product when it enters the United States. It is determined by your 10-digit HTS code (classification) and your country of origin. Use the search and filters above to find the applicable rate, then verify final filing rates with the official HTSUS at hts.usitc.gov or your licensed customs broker.

Start with a product description, HS code, or HTS code. Search above, then narrow results by country of origin and agreement type to see the likely duty rate and any Section 301 or Section 232 overlays. Your duty is typically applied as an ad valorem percentage to the declared customs value of the goods.

Identify how U.S. Customs would classify your product in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTSUS). Search by product keyword, compare similar classifications, and confirm the full 10-digit HTS code. Classification drives duty rate and determines whether additional duties or trade program rules apply.

An HS code is the international 6-digit classification used globally. An HTS (HTSUS) code is the U.S. extension that typically goes to 10 digits for import filing and duty determination. The first 6 digits usually match globally, while the additional digits refine the classification for U.S. tariff treatment.

Yes. The base MFN duty is tied to the HTS code, but additional duties and trade program benefits can depend on country of origin. For the same HTS code, goods from different countries may face Section 301 overlays, Section 232 duties, reciprocal actions, or reduced rates under free trade agreements.

MFN stands for Most Favored Nation. It is the standard baseline duty rate the U.S. applies to imports from World Trade Organization member countries. Many products have low MFN rates, but additional duties under Section 301 or Section 232 can increase the total duty significantly.

A 25% rate is commonly associated with Section 232 (steel) or certain Section 301 (China) actions layered on top of the base MFN rate. The exact reason depends on your HTS code, country of origin, and whether an additional duty program applies to that classification.

Section 301 additional duties generally target certain Chinese-origin imports and are tied to specific HTS codes and Chapter 99 overlays. Use the agreement and program indicators above as a screening step, then confirm applicability against official USTR and HTSUS Chapter 99 references before filing.

Section 232 duties most commonly impact steel and aluminum products and are applied based on classification and country treatment rules. If your product is in a steel or aluminum category, your total duty can include a 232 overlay. Confirm final applicability against current CBP guidance and HTSUS notes.

Sometimes. Programs like USMCA and certain Free Trade Agreements can reduce duty, including to zero, if your goods meet the required rules of origin. Eligibility is not automatic. You must meet the agreement’s origin requirements and retain supporting documentation.

The official Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) is published by the U.S. International Trade Commission at hts.usitc.gov. Use official sources for final confirmation of tariff rates, notes, and Chapter 99 overlays.

Yes. This page offers a tracker-ready export in CSV/Excel format for sourcing models and workflow use. A structured workbook upgrade is also available if you want auto-fill functionality and overlays organized around your specific HS codes.

Enter your HS code in the search bar above. The tool returns the applicable tariff rate, country of origin, product category, and agreement type. You can also search by country name or product keyword. For official rates, cross-reference with the Harmonized Tariff Schedule published by USITC at hts.usitc.gov.

This tool references the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) structure but uses a curated sample dataset for modeling. The official HTS is maintained by the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) and contains thousands of tariff lines across 99 chapters. Always verify rates against the official schedule before filing entries with CBP.

The rates shown may reflect additional duties where applicable. Section 301 now covers two programs: the original China tariffs, which can add 7.5% to over 100% on top of the base rate, and the forced-labor duties effective July 24, 2026, which add 10% or 12.5% to imports from 60 economies. Section 232 tariffs apply 50% on steel, aluminum, and copper, assessed on the full customs value of the article (Proclamations 11021 and 11032, 2026). These are layered on top of the standard MFN rate assigned to each HS code.

The official HTSUS is updated by USITC when trade policy changes take effect. Section 301 and Section 232 actions can change rates at any time through Federal Register notices and Presidential proclamations, and USITC has published five HTS revisions since July 1, 2026 alone. The Supreme Court struck down IEEPA-based tariffs on Feb 20, 2026; a replacement Section 122 temporary 10% import duty ran from Feb 24 through its statutory expiration on July 24, 2026, and was replaced the same day by Section 301 forced-labor duties on imports from 60 economies. Refunds of Section 122 duties already paid remain tied to the pending Federal Circuit appeal. This tool is updated as major policy changes occur to reflect the current tariff landscape.

Ad valorem means “according to value.” It is a duty calculated as a percentage of the customs value of the imported goods. A 25% ad valorem rate on a $50,000 shipment means $12,500 in duty. Most U.S. tariff rates are expressed as ad valorem percentages.

A specific duty is a fixed dollar amount per unit of measure rather than a percentage. For example, $0.05 per kilogram or $2.00 per liter. Some HS codes carry compound duties that combine an ad valorem rate with a specific duty component.

A Harmonized System (HS) code is a standardized numerical classification used by customs authorities worldwide to identify traded products. The first six digits are internationally standardized. The U.S. adds additional digits for the HTS classification, which determines the applicable tariff rate for import duty purposes.

Start with the MFN rate for your HS code. Add any applicable Section 301, 232, or reciprocal tariff overlays. Multiply the combined rate by the declared customs value of your goods. For compound duties, add the specific duty amount per unit. The result is your total duty obligation before CBP processing fees.

Liquidation is when CBP finalizes the duty amount on your entry. Before liquidation, you can file a Post-Summary Correction to adjust duties. After liquidation, your only recourse is a formal protest under 19 USC 1514, which must be filed within 180 days. After that window closes, overpayments cannot be recovered.

Yes. The dataset is available in a tracker-ready Excel and CSV format for operational use. It is formatted to drop into landed cost models, ERP templates, and sourcing comparison tools. Get the export version through the link above the data table or in the export section below.

Rates vary because of trade agreements, retaliatory tariffs, and trade remedy actions. A product imported from a country with a free trade agreement may face 0% duty while the same product from a Section 301 target country could face over 100%. The country of origin combined with the HS code determines the applicable rate.

This free lookup lets you search and browse tariff rates across 60+ countries and 254+ product categories. It is designed for modeling, education, and initial rate identification. The Auto-Fill Workbook ($97) is the HTSUS 2026 Master Rate Workbook — a 6-tab Excel workbook with 2,000+ rate rows, Section 301 and Chapter 99 overlays, and an auto-fill lookup where you enter YOUR HS codes and get rates populated automatically. The upgrade is built for teams that need to track specific HS codes across sourcing decisions, not just browse general rates.

Yes, and that is exactly who this tool is built for. You do not need a customs broker or a trade compliance background to use it. If you import products, buy from overseas suppliers, or are trying to figure out why your costs went up, you can search by country name, product type, or HS code and see what tariff rate applies. The table shows you the rate, where it comes from, and what trade program or action is driving it. If you are just starting to figure out how tariffs affect your business, this is the right starting point. For official filing purposes, always confirm rates with a licensed customs broker or the HTSUS at hts.usitc.gov before making decisions.

Start by searching your product or HS code in the tool above and note the rate shown. Then cross-reference against the official HTSUS at hts.usitc.gov and check for any recent Federal Register notices tied to your product’s HS code. Tariff changes under Section 301, Section 232, or reciprocal tariff actions go into effect through executive orders and Federal Register publications — not through supplier emails. Your supplier may be correct, but they may also be passing along inaccurate information or using the rate change to adjust their pricing. Verifying independently before you accept a price increase protects your margin and gives you leverage in the conversation.
