FAQ's
- The Trade Act of 1974: The new 10% tariff falls under Section 122, which is used when there is a problem with international payments. It has a 150-day limit before congressional approval is required and a 15% maximum tariff rate. No federal investigation is required.
- The Trade Expansion Act of 1962: Section 232 of this act can be used if there’s a national security threat. It requires an investigation by the Department of Commerce, but there’s no limit to the rate or duration of the tariffs. Section 301 can be invoked if there’s a violation of US rights under trade agreements, following an investigation by the US trade representative. This section has a four-year limit (which can be extended indefinitely) and no cap on the rate.
Note: Tariff rates are governed by international trade regulations and may change without prior notice. Any applicable tariffs will be calculated at the time of invoicing and are the responsibility of the purchaser.
