Tariff Update: Import Duties on Imports of Steel and Steel Derivative Products


Effective March 12, 2025, a 25% duty will be applied to certain steel products imported into the U.S. under Section 232 tariffs from all countries. 

This includes both steel articles and some derivative products.


Read the official CBP Bulleting:



Key Points of the New Tariffs:


1. Tariffs on Steel Imports

  • 25% duty applies to:

    • Steel articles (excluding derivatives).

    • Items admitted to FTZs (Free Trade Zones) before March 12 and entered on/after that date

    • Derivative steel products (existing and new, including some outside Chapter 73)

    • Duty is based on the value of steel content for some products. (Steel content must be reported separately if it’s less than the total value.)


  • 0% duty applies to:

    •  Derivative products processed from U.S.-melted and poured steel, including those admitted to FTZs under privileged status before March 12


2. Melt and Pour Reporting

  • Importers must report the ISO country code where the steel was melted and poured.
