End of IEEPA Ad Valorem Tariffs
The President ordered that the additional ad valorem duties imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) in Executive Orders listed in Section 1 (including EOs numbered 14193, 14194, 14195, 14245, 14257, 14323, 14329, 14380, and 14382) shall no longer be in effect and, as soon as practicable, shall no longer be collected.
Shoppers Face Lower Import Prices
If you buy imported goods, you may no longer face the extra ad valorem duties that were imposed by the Executive Orders listed in Section 1; the order directs that collection of those additional duties end 'as soon as practicable.'
Other Duties and Feb 20 Actions Remain
The order explicitly does not affect other duties, including duties imposed under section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (19 U.S.C. 1862) and section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2411). It also leaves unchanged the Executive Order of February 20, 2026 (suspension of duty-free de minimis treatment) and the Proclamation of February 20, 2026 (temporary import surcharge).

Previous: 2026-03829, Continuing the Suspension of Duty-Free De Minimis Treatment for All Countries
The President is continuing to suspend the rule that lets small shipments come into the U.S. duty-free from all countries. This means even tiny imports will face extra taxes to protect U.S. security and trade interests. The change affects anyone sending goods through international mail and keeps these duties in place starting February 25, 2026, which could mean higher costs for some imports.
