Base tariff is 10% Section 122, but comprehensive US sanctions on Russia (in effect since 2022 and expanded since) prohibit or severely restrict most imports. Energy products, certain metals, and a long list of categories are blocked or licensed. Treat the 10% rate as theoretical for most goods — verify OFAC sanctions and BIS export controls before importing anything from Russia.
How US Tariffs on Russia Work
US import duties on goods from Russia 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. Section 232 tariffs of 50% on steel and 50% on aluminum apply to metals imports, regardless of the Section 122 rate.
