President Trump announced the 50% tariff rate hike on May 30, citing the need to protect the U.S. steel and aluminum industries.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Trump issued a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2025\/06\/adjusting-imports-of-aluminum-and-steel-into-the-united-states\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Proclamation on June 3, 2025<\/a> ordering that the Section 232 \u201cnational security\u201d tariffs on imports of steel and aluminum products be increased from 25% to 50% effective June 4, with one exception: tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from the UK remain at 25%, with possible changes or quotas starting July 9, 2025, depending on the status of the \u201cU.S.-UK Economic Prosperity Deal.\u201d The Proclamation also noted that the increased tariffs will apply only to the steel and aluminum contents of imported products, whereas the non-steel and non-aluminum contents of imported products will be subject to other applicable tariffs, e.g., Normal Trade Relations duties, Section 301 \u201cChina tariffs,\u201d and IEEPA tariffs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pause on Tariff Decision&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second development relates to the status of the IEEPA tariffs while two separate cases which struck them down as illegal continue on appeal (for prior coverage, see the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdo.com\/insights\/tax\/federal-courts-deliver-major-blow-to-america-first-trade-policy-but-tariff-uncertainty-continues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trade alert dated May 30, 2025<\/a>). A federal judge in Washington, D.C. granted the government\u2019s motion to stay his preliminary injunction in <a href=\"https:\/\/assets.bwbx.io\/documents\/users\/iqjWHBFdfxIU\/r5hLMk7VzTIk\/v0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Learning Resources, Inc. v. Donald J. Trump, et al.<\/em><\/a> ordering the U.S. to stop collecting those duties while the underlying merits of the decision proceed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This action nearly mirrors that concerning the decision of the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) by a three-judge panel which similarly ruled in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cit.uscourts.gov\/sites\/cit\/files\/25-66.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>V.O.S.

In that case, the CIT issued a permanent injunction, which was preliminarily stayed the same day by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC). A hearing and final decision whether to keep the stay in place pending the conclusion of the appeals process on the merits of the case is expected shortly. Both cases are widely expected to ultimately reach the U.S. Supreme Court.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these new developments, further confusion concerning the \u201cstacking\u201d of the Section 232 and IEEPA tariffs and exemptions for Canadian and Mexican goods under the United States Mexico Canada Agreement (USMCA) will likely result. In an attempt to clarify the order of application of the various tariffs, U.S. Customs &amp; Border Protection (CBP) released guidance on June 3 as follows:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Priority Order\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Effective with respect to goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on June 4, 2025, below is the new priority order of the five presidential actions identified in EO 14289, as amended:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>232 Auto\/Auto Parts<\/strong> &#8211; Proclamation 10908 of March 26, 2025 (Adjusting Imports of Automobiles and Automobile Parts into the United States), as amended;\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>232 Aluminum<\/strong> &#8211; Proclamation 9704 of March 8, 2018 (Adjusting Imports of Aluminum into the United States), as amended;\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>232 Steel<\/strong> &#8211; Proclamation 9705 of March 8, 2018 (Adjusting Imports of Steel into the United States), as amended;\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) Canada<\/strong> &#8211; Executive Order 14193 of February 1, 2025 (Imposing Duties to Address the Flow of Illicit Drugs Across Our Northern Border), as amended;\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>IEEPA Mexico<\/strong> &#8211; Executive Order 14194 of February 1, 2025 (Imposing Duties to Address the Situation at Our Southern Border), as amended.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applicability\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For articles subject to more than one of the five tariff actions addressed in EO 14289, filers will pay duty in accordance with the prioritization below.&nbsp; \u201cSubject to\u201d means that duty more than 0% is owed under the tariff action.

Those exclusions (the final exclusions granted under the now lapsed exclusion process) were due to expire on May 31 but have been given an additional 90 days to remain in place. The <a href=\"https:\/\/ustr.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/files\/Press\/Releases\/2025\/Federal%20Register%20Notice%20Extending%20Exclusions%2005312025.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Federal Register notice<\/a> indicates that the extended exclusions will expire on August 31. Further extensions may be possible but no new exclusion process is expected for any goods of Chinese origin covered by the Section 301 tariffs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Insight\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To further complicate matters for global companies, reports of new national security tariff investigations of semiconductors and pharmaceuticals under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 are expected soon. These reports will likely recommend further tariffs on these merchandise categories \u2013 which include all downstream\/derivative and related products, such as smartphones and active pharmaceutical ingredients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nonetheless, importers should pursue existing plans and strategies to mitigate the impact of the Section 232 and IEEPA tariffs. Given the length of time needed for final resolution of these tariffs either via litigation or negotiation (and the lack of \u201ctrade deals\u201d to date that were expected with the 57 countries targeted by the IEEPA \u201creciprocal\u201d tariffs), cost-saving initiatives should proceed apace. Any strategies adopted can still impact Normal Trade Relations duties, Section 301 tariffs, and antidumping\/countervailing duties.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It should also be noted that public hearings on the renewal of USMCA mandated in 2026 will begin in October. Because USMCA is a genuine free trade agreement that was ratified by Congress, current law requires that it be voted upon by Congress, either in its current form or as amended. The administration is expected to push for separate levels of U.S. content when performing regional value content calculations to qualify goods as USMCA-originating.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Written by Damon V.
