US Tariffs on Oil Seeds, Miscellaneous Grains from Nigeria — 10% (2026)

Importers sourcing oil seeds, miscellaneous grains from Nigeria face specific tariff considerations, with approximately $10B in total bilateral trade.

As of March 2026, oil seeds, miscellaneous grains imports from Nigeria face a base tariff rate of 10% under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. This rate replaced the previous IEEPA reciprocal tariff following the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling in V.O.S. Selections Inc. v. United States on February 20, 2026.

Under the Trade Act of 1974, Section 122 tariffs are limited to 150 days. The current 10% rate expires around July 24, 2026. Congressional action would be required to extend these tariffs beyond that date.

Oil Seeds, Miscellaneous Grains (HTS Chapter 12) carry an average MFN duty rate of 2.5% in addition to the Section 122 tariff. No additional Section 232 or Section 301 surcharges apply to most products in this category from Nigeria.

Key products in HTS Chapter 12 imported from Nigeria include Soybeans, Peanuts, Sunflower seeds, Rapeseed (canola), Flaxseed, and Sesame seeds.
