Poland Tariff Rates 2026: 15% on US Imports
As of 2026-07-24, US imports from Poland carry an effective tariff of about 15%. This is the 15% all-inclusive ceiling under the EU-US trade deal, effective July 1, 2026 — it replaced the 10% Section 122 rate and does not stack: goods with an MFN rate of 15% or more pay MFN only, with Section 232 metals tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum charged separately (metals sit outside the 15% ceiling). Autos from Poland are now 15% (down from 27.5%), and pharmaceuticals and semiconductors are capped at 15%. The rate fell from 20% after the Supreme Court struck down the IEEPA tariffs in February 2026, so importers who paid the higher rate between April 2025 and February 2026 may qualify for refunds. The earlier 10% Section 122 tariff (in effect Feb 24 – June 30, 2026 for EU goods) was ruled unlawful by the Court of International Trade in May 2026 and remains under Federal Circuit appeal, but it no longer applies to EU-origin goods.

Poland Import Tariff Overview
Poland is covered by the EU-US trade deal effective July 1, 2026: most Polish goods now face a 15% all-inclusive US tariff ceiling with no stacking, replacing the 10% Section 122 tariff that applied from Feb 24 to June 30, 2026. As Europe's largest furniture producer, Poland keeps a wide tariff advantage over Chinese furniture (which faces 25% Section 301 on top of 10% Section 122 for 35%+ total), preserving its position as the leading EU alternative for US furniture sourcing.
Poland has emerged as one of Europe's fastest-growing exporters to the US, driven by competitive manufacturing costs, EU membership, and proximity to Western European supply chains. Key export sectors include furniture (Poland is Europe's largest producer and the world's fourth-largest furniture exporter), machinery, auto parts, and food products. Poland's central European location makes it a manufacturing hub for Volkswagen, Fiat, Mercedes, and other multinationals. As an EU member, Poland trades under the bloc-wide EU-US deal terms.
Key Products Imported from Poland
Top imports include furniture (living room, bedroom, kitchen — competing directly with Chinese furniture), machinery, auto parts and vehicles, electrical equipment, plastics, meat products, copper, and IKEA products (Poland is one of IKEA's largest manufacturing bases). Poland has become Europe's largest furniture producer and a significant auto parts supplier.
Recent Changes
The timeline: Feb 20, 2026 — SCOTUS struck down IEEPA tariffs 6-3, dropping Poland from 20% to the 10% Section 122 rate (effective Feb 24). July 1, 2026 — the EU-US trade deal took effect, moving Poland off Section 122 and onto a 15% all-inclusive ceiling with no stacking; goods with MFN rates of 15%+ pay MFN only. Polish autos and auto parts fall under the deal's flat 15% (in lieu of the 27.5% Section 232 auto regime), pharmaceuticals are capped at 15%, and steel and aluminum from the EU remain at 50% Section 232. In exchange, the EU eliminated duties on US industrial goods July 1. Poland's furniture exports to the US continue growing as a direct alternative to Chinese furniture (which faces 25% Section 301 + 10% Section 122 = 35%+ total). Polish auto parts manufacturing expands with new investments from Mercedes and BMW.
Tips for Importers
Polish furniture remains far more competitive than Chinese furniture: Poland pays a flat 15% all-inclusive under the EU deal (MFN furniture duties no longer stack), while Chinese furniture faces 25% Section 301 + 10% Section 122 (+ MFN) for a combined 35%+ total — a 20-point gap. Vietnam at 10% Section 122 now slightly undercuts Poland until that tariff sunsets July 24, 2026. For auto parts, consider whether Polish-made components can be integrated into USMCA supply chains (Polish parts shipped to Mexico for assembly may qualify). Verify country of origin carefully for goods manufactured by multinationals in Poland — Mercedes and VW engines made in Poland are Polish origin and get the EU deal rate. Unlike Section 122, the EU deal's 15% ceiling has no built-in sunset.
How Are US Tariffs on Poland Imports Calculated?
US import duties on goods from Poland are determined by multiple overlapping tariff authorities. The base layer is the EU-US trade deal’s 15% all-inclusive ceiling, effective July 1, 2026, which replaced the 10% Section 122 rate for EU members. It does not stack: goods with an MFN rate of 15% or higher pay MFN only, while lower-MFN goods pay 15% total. Autos are 15% (down from 27.5%), and pharmaceuticals and semiconductors are capped at 15%. Section 232 tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum apply to metals imports, outside the EU deal's 15% ceiling.
To calculate the total duty on a specific import from Poland, 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 Poland rates with other countries to evaluate sourcing alternatives.
Already importing from Poland? 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.
