For Electronics, the highest applied rate is 145% (China) and the lowest is 0% (Mexico). The spread reflects the dramatic divergence in U.S. trade policy since early 2025.
Rates are approximate and reflect publicly announced 2025–2026 tariff actions. MFN rates are U.S. simple-average estimates by category. Applied surcharges reflect IEEPA reciprocal tariffs, Section 301, and Section 232 as of early 2026. Tariff policy changes frequently — always verify current rates with CBP or a licensed customs broker before making business decisions. This tool does not constitute legal or customs advice.
Importers who paid duties under executive orders later vacated or modified may have refund claims worth thousands — or millions. Use our Refund Impact Estimator to find out.
Estimate My Refund →MFN Rate — The baseline WTO Most Favored Nation duty that applies to all trading partners in the absence of preferential agreements. For most manufactured goods, U.S. MFN rates are 0–5%.
Surcharge — The additional duty layered on top of MFN. This includes IEEPA reciprocal tariffs (announced April 2025), Section 301 tariffs on China (2018–2019), and Section 232 duties on steel, aluminum, and autos.
Applied Rate — The total effective rate an importer pays in 2026: MFN + all surcharges. This is the number that matters for landed cost calculations and refund eligibility.
Note that tariffs are assessed on the dutiable value (customs value) of the shipment. Importers using first-sale valuation may reduce their dutiable value, partially offsetting the impact of high applied rates. Ask your customs broker if you qualify.
The MFN (Most Favored Nation) rate is the baseline WTO-bound duty that the U.S. applies to all trading partners without a preferential agreement. The 'applied rate' is what importers actually pay in 2026 — it includes the MFN baseline plus any IEEPA reciprocal surcharges, Section 301 tariffs (China), or Section 232 duties (steel/aluminum/autos). For many countries in 2026, the applied rate is dramatically higher than the MFN.
China faces a stacking of multiple tariff layers: the 2025–2026 IEEPA reciprocal tariff (125%), pre-existing Section 301 tariffs from 2018–2019 (7.5%–25% depending on category), and in some cases Section 232 duties on steel, aluminum, and auto parts. These layers combine, pushing effective rates well above 100% for many product categories.
IEEPA stands for the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The Trump administration invoked IEEPA starting in early 2025 to impose reciprocal tariffs on virtually all trading partners, citing persistent trade deficits as a national emergency. These IEEPA tariffs stack on top of existing duties like Section 301 and Section 232.
Goods that qualify under the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) are generally exempt from IEEPA reciprocal tariffs. However, non-USMCA-qualifying goods, steel/aluminum (Section 232), and auto parts may still face duties. Confirm USMCA qualification with your customs broker.
Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act allows the President to impose tariffs on imports that threaten national security. A 25% Section 232 tariff was reinstated on steel and aluminum from most countries in early 2025. Automotive parts face a separate 25% Section 232 tariff effective May 2025. These stack on top of IEEPA reciprocal duties.
Tariff policy remains highly dynamic. Rates shown reflect the best available data as of early 2026, but presidential proclamations, court rulings, and trade negotiations can alter rates with little notice. Always verify current rates with CBP's CROSS ruling database or a licensed customs broker before making import decisions.
Potentially. Importers who paid tariffs under executive orders that were later vacated or modified may have refund claims. Use our Refund Impact Estimator to estimate your potential recovery.
Vietnam's 46% IEEPA reciprocal tariff is significantly lower than China's 125%+ combined rates, which is why many manufacturers shifted production there. However, 46% is still a substantial cost increase over pre-2025 MFN rates, and CBP is increasingly scrutinizing origin claims for goods routed through Vietnam.
