Status of prior tariffs and new trade legislation
Importers should note that earlier trade actions have concluded. The IEEPA tariffs and the 25% Russian-oil duty ended in February 2026. Επομένως, neither measure applies to current shipments from India.
Regarding future developments, a new United States law—Δημόσιο Δίκαιο 119-111, signed on 18 September 2026—authorises up to 100% extra duty on goods from the largest buyers of Russian oil and gas. Ωστόσο, από 10 Οκτώβριος 2026, no notice applies this provision to India. Importers are not subject to any additional duty under Public Law 119-111 at present; check with your customs broker for updates on any future administrative notices.
