Effective Rate

The 50% Section 232 rate applies to articles wholly of steel, aluminum, or copper (derivatives are 25%), on full customs value. The 10% Section 122 surcharge does not stack on the Section 232 metal content — it reaches only any non-metal portion — so a wholly-metal article’s effective rate is 50%, not 60%.

Indonesia is a significant source of wood imports into the United States, with approximately $38B in total bilateral trade.

As of mid-2026, wood imports from Indonesia face a base tariff rate of 10% 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 Indonesia's current 10% base surcharge is that two-tier (10%/12.5%) rate.

Products in this chapter may be subject to Section 232 metals tariffs. Since the April 6, 2026 restructuring these are two-tier: 50% on articles wholly of steel, aluminum, or copper and 25% on derivative articles, on the full customs value (doubled from 25% to 50% in June 2025). The base forced-labor surcharge does NOT stack on the Section 232 metal content, so a wholly-metal article runs about 50%, not 60%.

Key products in HTS Chapter 44 imported from Indonesia include Lumber, Plywood, Particle board, Wood veneer, Wooden furniture parts, and Chopsticks.
