  • Color is a legal fact, not an opinion. It shows (whether something is still in force, was reversed, or is contested in court), never whether it was good or bad.
  • Click a figure that has an entry to see the documents and how strongly the number can be tied to the action (). A few macro counts (gross debt, this-term jobs, this-term judges) have no matching entry, so they stay unlinked rather than pointed at the wrong document.
  • Nothing here is scored, graded, or ranked. When two credible sources disagree, this archive shows both numbers instead of picking one.
  • Wins are in here too. See or filter the Ledger by .
  • Nobody is asking you to trust a byline. There isn’t one — the archive is anonymous, on purpose, which is exactly why it has to be checkable without one. See and check one entry against its own source yourself.
How to read this

Each tariff is an action with the archive’s usual layers: what was imposed, under what legal authority (, , , , or — click any to see what it means), where it stands now, and its measured effects. Every rate below was read out of the governing Federal Register document rather than recalled. The effects — prices, retaliation, revenue — live in the linked entry with at least two sourced estimates each, never averaged into one number. Status is a legal fact, not a verdict on the policy: “in force” and “no longer collected” say what happened, not whether it was wise.

A rate and a date are fixed forever; whether a duty is still being collected is not. Every row carries the date its status was last checked against the record, shown on the card. 16 of 31 actions have no entry yet, so they publish a sourced action and no measured effects — marked as such rather than left to look complete.

Section 338
In force
Section 338 import ban on certain Canadian products
September 14, 2026
Import prohibited, from 29 September 2026
Products of Canada listed in the annexes to Proclamations 11061 (alcoholic beverages including beer, wine, cider, whisky, rum, gin and vodka, some only in consumer packaging), 11062 (whey, molasses and non-alcoholic beer) and 11063 (motorcycles with engines over 800 cc)

Proclamations 11061, 11062 and 11063, signed 8 September 2026, move the listed products from the 50 percent Section 338 duties to an exclusion from importation, effective for goods imported on or after 12:01 a.m. on 29 September 2026. Listed goods imported before that date but not yet entered remain subject to the 50 percent duty. The proclamations state that Canada did not remove the measures at issue after the August suspension, and cite Section 338's authority to exclude a country's goods where it maintains or increases the discrimination. No later Federal Register document changing the ban appears as of 8 October 2026.

Section 232 tariffs on drones and drone components
August 19, 2026
100% on drones, docking stations and critical components in Annex I and 25% on the drones in Annex II, from 3 September 2026; 25% on the components in Annex III from 9 February 2027; no higher than 15% (including the MFN rate) for Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and the EU, and 10% for the UK, where importers certify substantially all critical components and technology as products of those partners or the US
Unmanned aircraft systems, docking stations and components listed in Annexes I to III to the proclamation, from all countries

Proclamation 11055, signed 13 August 2026. For companies on the Defense Department's Blue UAS Cleared List or Framework, or the FCC's Conditional Approval List, on 2 September 2026, the first-stage effective date for their listed products and components is 180 days after the proclamation's date. Companies with approved plans to build US production may import covered products and production equipment, in volumes tied to the planned facility's output, free of these duties while the facility is under construction. Commerce may add further components to the tariff.

Section 232

Section 232 minimum import prices and tariff on polysilicon and solar products
August 11, 2026
From 4 December 2026: minimum import prices of $21/kg (polysilicon), $100/kg (ingots and wafers), $0.22/W (cells) and $0.38/W (modules), with a specific tariff equal to any shortfall below the minimum (or the full minimum price where the importer files no documentation); plus an additional 15% on ingots and derivatives — set so that it and the MFN rate together equal 15% for Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and the EU, and 10% for the UK
Polysilicon, polysilicon ingots and wafers, solar cells and solar modules listed in Annexes I and II to the proclamation

Proclamation 11052, signed 6 August 2026. Its duties apply to goods entered on or after 12:01 a.m. on 4 December 2026, so none were being collected as of this date. Commerce may adjust the minimum prices. An importer found to have filed materially inaccurate documentation, along with its affiliates, is permanently barred from importing these products. Companies with approved plans to build US production may import production equipment and covered products, in volumes Commerce sets, free of these duties while their facility is under construction. A Commerce temporary rule, effective 22 September through 3 December 2026, lets Commerce bar further imports before 4 December by a company it finds stockpiling these products, and limits imports by importers that registered on or after 6 August 2026.

Section 201

Section 201 safeguard on quartz surface products
August 5, 2026
Tariff-rate quota: 25% within the quota and 50% above it from 15 August 2026, falling each year to 19% and 47% for 15 August 2029 to 14 August 2030
Quartz surface products (engineered-stone slabs, countertops and similar surfaces), except products of Australia, Canada, Colombia, Israel, Korea, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Singapore, the CAFTA-DR countries, Caribbean Basin beneficiaries and listed developing countries

Proclamation 11051, signed 31 July 2026, a four-year safeguard. The rates and quota quantities are in the Annex, which the Federal Register prints as images rather than text: an annual in-quota quantity of 13,006,426 square meters in the first year, rising to 15,700,614 in the fourth, allocated by quarter. Imports from the excluded countries do not count toward the quota. The proclamation authorises USTR to negotiate agreements limiting exports of these products to the United States and, with the President's approval, to revise the measure for a partner with which it concludes one.

Section 301
In force
Section 301 tariffs on 60 economies over forced-labour import bans
July 28, 2026
10% on 17 named economies, including Canada, Mexico, India and the United Kingdom; for the EU and Taiwan, whatever brings the MFN rate up to a combined 10%, and for Japan, Korea and Switzerland up to 12.5% (zero where the MFN rate already meets it); 12.5% on every other investigated economy, including China and Brazil
All products of 60 economies USTR found had failed to impose and effectively enforce a ban on importing goods made with forced labour, except the products listed in Annexes I and II to the notice

Applies to goods entered on or after 12:01 a.m. on 24 July 2026, the minute the Section 122 surcharge expired. The notice implements a presidential memorandum of 23 July 2026. The memorandum also directs USTR, once it finds it feasible, to set tariff-rate quotas letting a volume of specific textiles and apparel from Bangladesh, Cambodia, Indonesia and Malaysia enter free of these tariffs, sized to each economy's imports of US textile inputs and cotton.

Section 338
In force
Section 338 duties on Canadian products over alcohol, dairy and motor-vehicle measures
July 23, 2026
50% additional duty, from 22 August 2026
Products of Canada listed in the annexes to three proclamations: alcoholic beverages, wood and paper products and ice-hockey equipment (11046); milk and cream powders, whey, lactose and other products (11047); and a list running from honey and cut flowers to cotton and textiles (11048)

Proclamations 11046, 11047 and 11048, signed 20 July 2026 under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, which the later proclamations state caps such duties at 50 percent ad valorem. Each states a finding that Canada discriminates against US commerce: provincial and territorial bans on buying or selling US alcoholic beverages (11046), eligibility rules for the USMCA cheese tariff-rate quota that differ from those for the EU under CETA (11047), and Canada's tariffs on US motor vehicles (11048). The duties were first set for 19 August 2026; Proclamation 11056 suspended them for 3 days, to 22 August, citing negotiations. As first issued they did not apply to goods subject to Section 232 duties; Proclamations 11064 (alcohol list) and 11065 (motor-vehicle list) added and removed products from 15 September 2026 and made the duty apply in addition to Section 232 duties. From 29 September 2026 some listed products were moved to an import ban, recorded separately. No later Federal Register document changing these duties appears as of 8 October 2026.

All imports of Brazil, except the products listed in Annexes I and II to the notice

The investigation, opened in July 2025, covered digital trade and electronic payment services, preferential tariffs, anti-corruption enforcement, intellectual property, ethanol market access and illegal deforestation. USTR states it acted at the specific direction of a presidential memorandum of 15 July 2026. Brazil is also one of the 60 economies in the separate forced-labour action, at 12.5 percent, which applies from 24 July 2026.

Steel, aluminum and copper tariffs moved to full customs value
April 9, 2026
50% on aluminum and steel articles, most copper articles and certain derivatives (Annex I-A); 25% on other copper articles and other derivatives (Annex I-B); for derivatives in Annex III, through 2027, whatever brings the MFN rate to a combined 15%; lower rates for qualifying UK products and for derivatives made entirely of US-melted or US-smelted metal
Aluminum, steel and copper articles and the derivative articles listed in the proclamation's annexes, from all countries

Proclamation 11021, effective 6 April 2026. The duty now applies to the full customs value of the product, regardless of metal content, rather than to the metal content alone. Proclamation 11032 (signed 1 June 2026, effective 8 June) set a 25 percent rate through 2027 on articles in a new Annex I-C, with a combined MFN-plus-Section-232 rate of 15 percent for products of named trading partners and duty on non-US content only for USMCA-qualifying goods of Canada and Mexico. Proclamation 11045 (20 July 2026) directs Commerce to set up a program under which a company with an approved plan to build, refurbish or expand US primary-aluminum capacity may import primary aluminum, up to the plant's anticipated annual output, at half the Section 232 rate.

Section 122 temporary import surcharge
February 25, 2026
10% — 24 February to 24 July 2026
All imports, except the products listed in the proclamation's Annexes I and II — among them goods subject to Section 232 tariffs, goods of Canada and Mexico entered duty-free under the USMCA, energy, pharmaceuticals, certain critical minerals, certain electronics, passenger vehicles and certain agricultural products

Proclamation 11012, signed 20 February 2026, the day the Supreme Court held IEEPA does not authorise tariffs. Section 122 permits a surcharge of up to 15 percent for no more than 150 days unless Congress extends it; the proclamation set 10 percent and ran it to the statutory limit. On 7 May 2026 the Court of International Trade, 2-1, declared the proclamation contrary to law (Oregon v. United States, Slip Op. 26-47) but enjoined collection only from the three importer plaintiffs it found had standing, dismissing the other states. The government appealed on 8 May; the Federal Circuit issued a temporary administrative stay on 12 May and, according to law-firm analyses of the order, granted a stay pending appeal on 11 June, so collection continued until the surcharge expired. See the linked entry for the litigation.

Ended by: Expired on its own terms at 12:01 a.m. on 24 July 2026, the end of the 150-day period Section 122 allows; Section 301 tariffs on 60 economies took effect the same minute

Section 232 tariff on semiconductors
January 20, 2026
25%
Certain advanced computing chips and derivative products listed in the proclamation's Annex, other than those imported for the uses the proclamation exempts

Proclamation 11002, signed 14 January 2026, effective for goods entered on or after 15 January 2026. The 25 percent applies to certain advanced computing chips and derivative products listed in the Annex, and not to imports for use in US data centers, US repairs or replacements, US research and development, startups, US non-data-center consumer or civil industrial applications, US public-sector applications, or other uses Commerce determines strengthen the US technology supply chain. The proclamation directs Commerce and USTR to pursue negotiations and states that, depending on their outcome, the President may consider broader tariffs on semiconductors and manufacturing equipment. A proclamation on processed critical minerals (11001), signed the same day, imposed no duty: it directs Commerce and USTR to negotiate agreements and to consider price floors.

Semiconductors from China in the 8-digit tariff subheadings listed in the notice, among them high-purity silicon, doped wafers, diodes, transistors and thyristors

The investigation, opened on 23 December 2024, concerned China's acts, policies and practices related to targeting of the semiconductor industry for dominance. The notice states the new tariff is in addition to the existing 50 percent Section 301 tariff on Chinese semiconductors from the forced-technology-transfer investigation. No Federal Register notice announcing the June 2027 rate had been published as of 8 October 2026.

Section 301 tariff on Nicaraguan imports, phased in

All imports of Nicaragua that do not originate under the Dominican Republic-Central America-United States Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR)

The investigation, opened on 10 December 2024, covered Nicaragua's acts, policies and practices related to labor rights, human rights and fundamental freedoms, and the rule of law. USTR announced its determination that they are actionable on 20 October 2025, announced this action on 10 December 2025, and implemented it in the tariff schedule by a notice of 29 December 2025. The rate in force on this date is zero; the first non-zero step is scheduled for 1 January 2027. Nicaragua is separately one of the 60 economies in the forced-labour action, at 12.5 percent, from 24 July 2026.

October 22, 2025
25% on medium- and heavy-duty vehicles and listed parts; 10% on buses — from 1 November 2025
Medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, the vehicle parts listed in Annex I to the proclamation, and buses, from all countries

Proclamation 10984, signed 17 October 2025. For USMCA-qualifying trucks other than buses, the 25 percent can apply only to the value of non-US content once Commerce approves the importer's documentation; USMCA-qualifying parts are not subject to the duty until Commerce sets up a process for applying it to their non-US content and publishes it in the Federal Register. Vehicles made at least 25 years before entry are exempt. Truck makers assembling in the United States may claim an offset equal to 3.75 percent of the value of the trucks they assemble, from 1 November 2025 through 31 October 2030. The same proclamation rewrote the automobile-parts offset in the April 2025 autos action so it runs through 30 April 2030. Commerce notices published in February, May and July 2026 set out procedures for the USMCA content submissions and the offsets; no later proclamation changing these rates appears in the Federal Register as of 8 October 2026.
