Excluding Certain Canadian Alcoholic Beverages from Importation into the United States in Response to Continued Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States with Respect to Alcoholic Beverages
President Trump, invoking Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, orders an import ban on certain Canadian alcoholic beverages effective September 29, 2026, escalating previous 50% ad valorem duties. This action targets Canadian discrimination against U.S. alcoholic beverages, citing Canada's broken commitments and additional retaliation. The ban replaces the tariff for specified products with a complete exclusion from entry into the United States.
Modifying the Scope of Products of Canada Subject to the Additional Duties Imposed to Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States with Respect to Alcoholic Beverages
This proclamation modifies the list of Canadian products subject to a 50% ad valorem additional duty originally imposed under Proclamation 11046, effective September 15, 2026. It adds certain products to the duty (Annex I, Part A) and removes others (Annex I, Part B), based on recommendations from senior executive branch officials to better serve the public interest while still offsetting Canadian discrimination against U.S. alcoholic beverages. The action directs U.S. Customs and Border Protection to implement the changes and maintains that the duties are in addition to any existing section 232 duties.
Excluding Certain Canadian Products from Importation into the United States in Response to Continued Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States with Respect to Dairy

It invokes Section 338 of the Tariff Act of1930 and Section604 of the Trade Act of1974, and directs U.S. Customs and Border Protection in consultation with Treasury, Commerce, and USTR to implement the ban.
