Brazil Tariff Rates 2026: 10% on US Imports
As of 2026-06-14, US imports from Brazil carry an effective tariff of about 10%. This combines the 10% Section 122 baseline applied to all countries, with Section 232 metals tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum charged separately. The 10% Section 122 tariff was ruled unlawful by the Court of International Trade in May 2026, but a Federal Circuit stay is keeping it in force pending appeal; absent that, it is set to expire around July 24, 2026.

Verify your product’s classification — the exact 232 treatment depends on HTS code and metal content.
Brazil Import Tariff Overview
Brazil faces a 10% Section 122 tariff plus standard MFN rates on exports to the US. As a major steel producer, Section 232 tariffs apply to Brazilian metals at 50% on articles wholly of steel/aluminum and 25% on derivative products (both on full customs value, after the April 6, 2026 restructuring) — these were unaffected by the SCOTUS IEEPA ruling.
Brazil is the largest economy in South America and a significant US trading partner, with approximately $40B in annual exports to the US. There is no bilateral free trade agreement between the US and Brazil, though negotiations have been discussed periodically. Brazil is a member of Mercosur, which limits its ability to negotiate independent trade deals.
Key Products Imported from Brazil
Top imports from Brazil include crude oil, iron and steel products, aircraft and parts (Embraer), coffee, wood pulp, orange juice, and soybeans. Brazil is also a major supplier of ethanol, beef, and industrial machinery.
Recent Changes
Feb 20, 2026: SCOTUS struck down IEEPA tariffs; Brazil's 10% rate continues under Section 122 authority (expires ~July 24, 2026). Section 232 steel tariffs are 50% on articles wholly of steel (the 50% tier doubled June 2025) and 25% on derivative steel products, both on full customs value after the April 6, 2026 restructuring. Brazil's steel quota arrangement was superseded by the Section 232 tariff. Embraer aircraft deliveries continue under specific HTS classifications. No US-Brazil FTA is expected near-term.
Tips for Importers
For steel imports, evaluate whether your product classifications might qualify for a Section 232 exclusion through the Commerce Department. Brazilian coffee enters at 0% MFN duty, making the 10% Section 122 tariff the only layer. Duty drawback programs offset costs on re-exported goods. With Section 122 set to expire ~July 2026, consider timing larger shipments around the potential rate change.
How Are US Tariffs on Brazil Imports Calculated?
US import duties on goods from Brazil are determined by multiple overlapping tariff authorities. The base layer is the Section 122 tariff at 10%, which applies to all countries and is set to expire around July 24, 2026. (The Court of International Trade ruled this tariff unlawful in May 2026; it remains collected under a Federal Circuit stay while the government’s appeal proceeds.) Section 232 tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum apply to metals imports, regardless of the Section 122 rate.

Already importing from Brazil? If you paid the higher pre-SCOTUS IEEPA rate in 2025, you may be able to claim an IEEPA tariff refund. And if you re-export or manufacture with imported goods, duty drawback can recover up to 99% of the duties you paid — both are separate from the rates above.
