Among US trading partners for vehicles (not railway), Colombia plays a notable role, with approximately $36B in total bilateral trade.

As of mid-2026, vehicles (not railway) imports from Colombia face a base tariff rate of 12.5% under the Section 301 forced-labor tariff (a two-tier 10%/12.5% duty), which replaced the flat 10% Section 122 rate when it expired July 24, 2026. Section 122 had itself replaced the IEEPA reciprocal tariff following the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling in Learning Resources v. Trump (with V.O.S. Selections) on February 20, 2026.

Under the Trade Act of 1974, Section 122 tariffs are limited to 150 days, so the flat 10% Section 122 rate expired on July 24, 2026. It was replaced the same day by USTR's Section 301 forced-labor tariff, and Colombia's current 12.5% base surcharge is that two-tier (10%/12.5%) rate.

Vehicles (not Railway) (HTS Chapter 87) carry an average MFN duty rate of 2.5% in addition to the base forced-labor tariff. No additional Section 232 or Section 301 surcharges apply to most products in this category from Colombia.

Colombia is party to the US-Colombia TPA, which may provide preferential or duty-free access for qualifying vehicles (not railway). Importers should verify rules of origin requirements to take advantage of preferential rates.

Key products in HTS Chapter 87 imported from Colombia include Passenger cars, Pickup trucks, SUVs, Motorcycles, Bicycles, and Auto parts.
