Colombia Tariff Rates 2026: 10% on US Imports

Updated 2026-07-24US-Colombia TPA
Effective Rate
10%

As of 2026-07-24, US imports from Colombia 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. Goods qualifying under the US-Colombia TPA may enter with reduced or zero base duty, though the Section 122 tariff still applies. The 10% Section 122 tariff (effective Feb 24, 2026) expired at its 150-day limit on July 24, 2026 and was replaced the same day by the Section 301 forced-labor tariff (10%, or 12.5% for higher-tier economies).

Colombia Import Tariff Overview

Colombia benefits from the US-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement (TPA), which eliminates tariffs on most qualifying goods. The 10% Section 122 tariff applies only to non-TPA-covered products, making Colombia one of the most cost-effective sourcing origins in the Americas.

The US-Colombia TPA has been in effect since 2012 and provides duty-free access for the vast majority of Colombian exports to the US. Annual bilateral goods trade is approximately $35B. Colombia is also a US partner under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) for eligible products not covered by the TPA.

Key Products Imported from Colombia

Top imports from Colombia include crude oil and petroleum products, coffee, cut flowers, gold, coal, bananas, and apparel. Colombia is the largest supplier of cut flowers to the US and a leading source of arabica coffee.

Recent Changes

Feb 20, 2026: SCOTUS struck down IEEPA tariffs; Section 122 at 10% applies only to non-TPA goods (scheduled to sunset ~July 24, 2026). The TPA continues to eliminate duties on the vast majority of Colombian exports. Section 232 metals tariffs apply at 50% on articles wholly of steel/aluminum and 25% on derivative products (both on full customs value, after the April 6, 2026 restructuring). The TPA itself is stable with no renegotiation planned.

Tips for Importers

Leverage the US-Colombia TPA for duty-free treatment โ€” ensure you have proper certificates of origin. Colombian cut flowers enter at 0% under the TPA, maintaining Colombia's 80% US market share. Coffee enters duty-free regardless of trade agreements. With Section 122 scheduled to sunset ~July 2026, TPA qualification provides long-term tariff certainty that non-FTA countries cannot match.

How Are US Tariffs on Colombia Imports Calculated?

US import duties on goods from Colombia are determined by multiple overlapping tariff authorities. The base layer is the 10% Section 301 forced-labor tariff, which replaced the expired 10% Section 122 tariff on July 24, 2026 and applies to most countries without a separate trade deal. Section 232 tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum apply to metals imports, regardless of the Section 122 rate. Colombia benefits from the US-Colombia TPA, which can eliminate MFN base duties on qualifying goods โ€” though the Section 122 tariff still applies on top of FTA preferences.

To calculate the total duty on a specific import from Colombia, use our US import duty calculator or landed cost calculator for a complete estimate including Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) and Harbor Maintenance Fee (HMF). You can also compare Colombia rates with other countries to evaluate sourcing alternatives.

Already importing from Colombia? 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 โ€” both are separate from the rates above.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Colombian cut flowers face any US tariffs?
No. Cut flowers from Colombia qualify for 0% duty under the US-Colombia TPA. Colombia supplies approximately 80% of US fresh-cut flower imports, and the TPA provides a permanent cost advantage over non-FTA flower sources.
Is Colombian coffee subject to the Section 122 tariff?
Unroasted coffee enters the US duty-free under MFN treatment regardless of origin. The Section 122 tariff technically applies but the base MFN rate is already 0%, so Colombian coffee faces minimal tariff impact.
Which Colombian goods are NOT covered by the TPA?
The TPA covers the vast majority of goods, but some textile and apparel items, certain agricultural products with tariff-rate quotas, and goods not meeting rules of origin may face the 10% Section 122 tariff plus MFN duties.
How does Colombia compare to Ecuador for agricultural sourcing?
Colombia's TPA provides significant tariff advantages over Ecuador, which has no US FTA. Colombian bananas, flowers, and coffee benefit from zero-duty TPA treatment, while Ecuadorian equivalents face the 10% Section 122 tariff plus MFN rates.
