What each of these duties is

Normal duty (MFN, column 1-General)

The normal duty is the column 1-General rate the Harmonized Tariff Schedule sets for this code. Every country the United States trades with normally pays it unless a trade agreement or a preference programme says otherwise.

Section 232 (steel / aluminium / copper)

Section 232 covers steel, aluminium and copper on national-security grounds. It applies to the metal content and is charged whatever the origin is.

Section 301 (China, 2024 four-year review)

The 2024 four-year review of Section 301 added a second set of headings, covering goods such as batteries, solar cells, steel and aluminium products, medical goods and electric vehicles.

IEEPA country programme

The IEEPA duty is a country programme added under emergency economic powers. It is charged on top of the normal rate and is keyed to the country of origin, not to the product.
