Russia Tariff Rates 2026: 10% on US Imports
As of 2026-07-24, US imports from Russia carry an effective tariff of about 10%. This combines the 10% Section 301 forced-labor baseline (which replaced Section 122 on July 24, 2026) applied to countries without a separate deal, with Section 232 metals tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum charged separately. 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).

Russia Import Tariff Overview
Russia is a special case: the tariff engine shows a nominal 10% base reciprocal layer, but in practice Russia lost Permanent Normal Trade Relations in 2022 and its goods are dutied at the much higher Column 2 rates, on top of comprehensive US sanctions and import bans. Treat any headline rate as theoretical — most imports from Russia are prohibited or heavily restricted.
Following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Congress suspended normal trade relations with Russia, moving its goods to the punitive Column 2 tariff column, and the US imposed sweeping OFAC sanctions plus import bans on energy, gold, seafood, and other categories. Bilateral trade has collapsed to a fraction of prior levels. There is no free trade agreement, and the reciprocal base layer is largely academic given the sanctions regime.
Key Products Imported from Russia
Historically the US imported fertilizers, palladium and other platinum-group metals, enriched uranium, semi-finished steel and aluminum, and seafood from Russia, but many of these are now banned or sharply curtailed. Fertilizers and certain critical minerals continue in limited, licensed volumes where humanitarian or supply-security exceptions apply.
Recent Changes
The 10% Section 122 surcharge and the July 24, 2026 transition to the Section 301 forced-labor tariff are largely moot for Russia because Column 2 rates and comprehensive sanctions govern actual entry. The $800 de minimis threshold is eliminated for all countries. OFAC sanctions and BIS export controls continue to expand, and importers should verify current designations before attempting any Russian-origin transaction.
Tips for Importers
Do not rely on the nominal 10% base figure — confirm the applicable Column 2 duty rate and, critically, screen every transaction against current OFAC sanctions and BIS controls, since many Russian-origin goods are outright prohibited. Where a category remains legal to import, ensure licensing is in place and documentation of origin is airtight; when in doubt, obtain a customs ruling or legal opinion before committing to a shipment.
How Are US Tariffs on Russia Imports Calculated?
US import duties on goods from Russia 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 forced-labor tariff.

Already importing from Russia? 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.
