U.S. sugar producers kept protected
The U.S. International Trade Commission decided that protections on sugar imported from Mexico will stay in place, holding tariffs or limits on Mexican sugar. The Commission completed and filed this determination on September 5, 2025, to prevent continuation or recurrence of material injury to the U.S. sugar industry.
Importers continue facing tariffs or limits
Because the Commission found that ending the suspended investigations would likely hurt U.S. industry, tariffs or limits on sugar from Mexico will remain in place. This decision, completed on September 5, 2025, means sugar importers from Mexico will continue to face those trade restrictions.
