Total Effective Rate

Thailand is a significant source of pharmaceutical products imports into the United States, with approximately $60B in total bilateral trade.

Following the Supreme Court's landmark February 20, 2026 decision striking down IEEPA tariffs, imports of pharmaceutical products from Thailand are now subject to a 10% tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, effective February 24, 2026.

This 10% rate has a built-in expiration: Section 122 limits presidential tariff authority to 150 days, meaning the tariff expires approximately July 24, 2026 without congressional renewal.

Pharmaceutical Products (HTS Chapter 30) generally enter duty-free at the MFN level, with the Section 122 tariff as the primary duty. No additional Section 232 or Section 301 surcharges apply to most products in this category from Thailand.

Key products in HTS Chapter 30 imported from Thailand include Vaccines, Antibiotics, Insulin, Bandages, Diagnostic reagents, and Blood products.
