Effective Rate

Japan is a significant source of vegetable plaiting materials imports into the United States, with approximately $218B in total bilateral trade.

Following the Supreme Court's landmark February 20, 2026 decision striking down IEEPA tariffs, imports of vegetable plaiting materials from Japan 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.

Vegetable Plaiting Materials (HTS Chapter 14) 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 Japan.

Key products in HTS Chapter 14 imported from Japan include Bamboo, Rattan, Reeds, Rushes, Vegetable fibers for stuffing, and Broom corn.
