Proclamation 11012 imposed an original 10% Section 122 surcharge for a stated period beginning February 24 and ending July 24, 2026. That original window is now past. Do not carry its rate into a current shipment automatically: later measures require their own legal sources, dates and exception checks.
Section 122 tariffs: the original 2026 surcharge period has ended
Review the original February–July 2026 Section 122 surcharge, its July 24 endpoint, historical exceptions and the separate current-duty review path.
Reported under HTS heading 9903.03.01 for covered entries.
12:01 a.m. EDT, unless ended earlier or lawfully extended.
The proclamation says legislation is required beyond 150 days.
Original 2026 surcharge period
The original Section 122 window is past
Use the original proclamation for historical entries. A new shipment needs current legal sources and product-level review.
Original endpoint
Proclamation 11012 stated July 24, 2026 at 12:01 a.m. EDT as the endpoint.
Continuation requires a source
Continuation beyond the original 150-day period requires an Act of Congress under the proclamation; do not infer it from a headline.
Other measures are separate
The July forced-labor Section 301 action and product-specific duties must be reviewed on their own terms.
Editorial update: October 9, 2026. This panel describes the original proclamation window, not a complete determination of later legal actions.

What the July 24 endpoint means now
The original proclamation set a finite entry window. Its 10% rate is a historical reference, not a default for October shipments. Any continuation or replacement requires a separate controlling source; different tariff authorities must not be treated as one program.
Historical exceptions still matter for entry research
For entries in the original period, verify Chapter 99 coverage and the proclamation exceptions, including specified products, Section 232 treatment and qualifying preference entries. An exception to that surcharge does not by itself remove an antidumping duty or another separate measure.
Preserve the original entry facts
Save the entry date and time, HTS classification, origin, customs value and original filing instructions when reviewing a historical estimate. For a new shipment, begin with current applicable programs rather than copying the old 10% assumption.

FAQ
When did the original Section 122 window end?
Proclamation 11012 stated an endpoint of 12:01 a.m. EDT on July 24, 2026. The original period is past; later measures require separate legal and entry-date review.
Should I automatically add 10% to a current import?
No. Do not continue a historical assumption without an applicable current legal source. Check product scope, origin, entry date and other tariff programs.
Does expiration remove all other tariffs?
No. MFN duty, China Section 301 lists, the separate forced-labor Section 301 action, Section 232 and AD/CVD each require their own review.
