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 Motor Vehicles
This proclamation bans imports of certain Canadian products, escalating a trade dispute over Canada's motor vehicle tariffs. It builds on prior actions under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 to impose an import exclusion, effective September 29, 2026, for goods currently subject to a 50% duty. The measure directs U.S. Customs and Border Protection to implement the ban and removes these products from the tariff regime, potentially disrupting supply chains in automotive and related sectors.

This proclamation modifies the list of Canadian products subject to the existing 50% additional ad valorem duty imposed under Proclamation 11048, effective September 15, 2026. While some products remain covered (Part A), others are removed from the duty (Part B). The action is taken under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and Section 604 of the Trade Act of 1974, and the duties stack on top of Section 232 tariffs. U.S. Customs and Border Protection is authorized to implement the changes.
