CBP Modifies Section 338 Additional Duties on Certain Goods of Canada
CBP issued guidance modifying the Section 338 additional duties applicable to certain goods of Canada. Importers of Canadian-origin merchandise subject to Section 338 measures should be aware that the duty treatment for covered goods has been updated.
We are reviewing our Canadian-origin commodity libraries against this modification to confirm that all affected HTS classifications and duty calculations reflect the updated Section 338 parameters. Our position is that any mid-stream change to country-specific additional duties warrants immediate reconciliation of open entries and pending shipments.
AI-assisted summary of a published CBP, USITC or Federal Register notice, with JFS CHB's position on it. For awareness only — always verify against the official notice before acting. Our position is general commentary on a published notice, not legal advice and not a binding opinion on any shipment. Nothing here creates a broker-client relationship or a duty of care, and it is not a substitute for a ruling, a licensed review of your facts, or the official notice itself.
