SUMMARY: In the Proclamation of February 10, 2025, Adjusting Imports of
Steel into the United States (Steel Presidential Proclamation), the
President imposed specified rates of duty on imports of steel. That
Proclamation authorized and directed the Secretary of Commerce to
publish modifications to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTSUS) so that it conforms to the amendments and effective

published a notice, Implementation of Duties on Steel Pursuant to
Proclamation 10896 Adjusting Imports of Steel into the United States,
on behalf of the Secretary of Commerce on March 5, 2025, that fulfilled
this directive. The revised HTSUS was set out in Annex 1 to the March 5

derivative products.
DATES: Steel derivatives added to the annex in this notice: The duties
set out in the annex for these additional steel derivatives are
effective with respect to certain products that are entered for
consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after
12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on June 23, 2025.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 10, 2025, the President issued the Steel Presidential
Proclamation adjusting imports of steel into the United States
(Proclamation 10896 of February 10, 2025) (90 FR 9817). The Steel
Presidential Proclamation instructed the Secretary of Commerce in
consultation with the Commissioner of United States Customs and Border
Protection within the Department of Homeland Security, and the heads of
other relevant executive departments and agencies, to revise the HTSUS
so that it conforms to the amendments and effective dates directed in
the Steel Presidential Proclamation. The Proclamation directed and
authorized the Secretary of Commerce to publish any such modifications
to the HTSUS in the Federal Register. BIS published such modifications
in Annex 1 to the notice, Implementation of Duties on Steel Pursuant to
Proclamation 10896 Adjusting Imports of Steel into the United States,
on behalf of the Secretary of Commerce on March 5, 2025 (90 FR 11249).
On June 3, 2025, the President issued Proclamation 10947, Adjusting
Imports of Aluminum and Steel into the United States, which adjusted
the Section 232 tariff rates on aluminum and steel imports and (except
for products of the United Kingdom) imposed an additional 25 percent ad
valorem tariff to aluminum and steel imports and derivative aluminum
and steel articles (90 FR 24199).
In this notice, BIS revises Annex 1 to add the following additional
steel derivative products:
(1) combined refrigerator-freezers under HTSUS subheading
8418.10.00;
(2) small and large dryers under HTSUS subheadings 8451.21.00 and
8451.29.00;
(3) washing machines under HTSUS subheadings 8450.11.00 and
8450.20.00;
(4) dishwashers under HTSUS subheading 8422.11.00;
(5) chest and upright freezers under HTSUS subheadings 8418.30.00
and 8418.40.00;
(6) cooking stoves, ranges, and ovens under HTSUS subheading
8516.60.40;
(7) food waste disposals under HTSUS subheading 8509.80.20; and
(8) welded wire rack under statistical reporting number
9403.99.9020.
The tariff imposed under Proclamation 10896 will be assessed on
these derivative products for the value of the steel content in each
product.
All other tariff codes for steel and steel derivative products in
Annex 1 remain unchanged.
Note that products classified under statistical reporting number
9403.99.9020 continue to be subject to tariffs under Proclamation 10895
as derivative products of aluminum for their aluminum content.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Strategic Trade.
