The U.S. tariff system (HTSUS)

The US tariff system (HTSUS – Harmonized Tariff Schedule of United States) is supplemented by trade policy measures that can significantly affect import costs, such as:

  • Section 232 additional duties on steel, aluminum and copper
  • Section 301 countervailing duties on goods of Chinese origin and other categories

Compliance and strategic management of U.S. tariffs

Exporting companies must ensure full compliance with U.S. customs regulations by continuously monitoring applicable tariff measures and exemptions.

A strategic and well-documented approach helps prevent disputes, optimize the supply chain, and reduce the economic impact of additional duties or trade restrictions.
