DIZPOT Product Spotlights

CBP Ends IEEPA Tariff Collection & Understanding Sections 201 & 232

With several federal tariff programs in motion and a recent Supreme Court decision affecting one of them, it’s important to understand what has (and has not) changed for your supply chain. Here’s a simple overview of the latest updates and how they impact your costs with DIZPOT. (Spoiler Alert: DIZPOT costs are not affected.)

 

What Changed and When
 
  • Supreme Court (Feb 20, 2026): Ruled that IEEPA does not authorize tariffs.
  • CBP (effective Feb 24, 12:00 a.m. ET): Deactivated IEEPA tariff provisions in ACE and stopped collecting related duties on new entries. Refund guidance for prior entries remains pending.

What 201 and 232 Are

Section 201 – Safeguards:
Temporary relief actions (tariffs or quotas) used when surging imports seriously injure a U.S. industry. These measures remain available.

Section 232 – National Security:
Allows import adjustments on steel/aluminum and specific goods when national security risks are identified. These measures remain active.

Section 301 – China duties:
Fully unchanged.

Note on Section 122:
The Administration announced a temporary 10% duty (up to 150 days). It is separate from IEEPA. We are watching for formal implementation guidance.

What This Means for Your Business

  • DIZPOT prices remain stable; no tariff-related changes.
  • New entries will no longer show IEEPA duty lines.
  • Older entries (pre‑Feb 24) remain as filed until refund instructions are issued.
  • Section 232 and 301 processes (classification, exclusion, documentation) should continue unchanged.
Practical Next Steps
 
  • Review new entry summaries over the next few weeks to ensure they reflect the IEEPA changeover.
  • Keep records for pre‑Feb 24 entries for potential refund workflows.
  • Maintain Section 232/301 compliance as agencies finalize additional updates.

DIZPOT's position 

Our focus remains keeping your landed‑cost planning predictable and supporting you through tariff shifts. As agencies publish refund guidance for earlier IEEPA‑affected shipments or finalize Section 122 procedures, we’ll issue another rapid brief.
