Woven Clothing from Guatemala represent an important segment of bilateral trade, with approximately $7B in total bilateral trade.

The current tariff framework for woven clothing from Guatemala reflects the post-SCOTUS landscape: a 10% base tariff under the Section 301 forced-labor tariff that replaced the flat 10% Section 122 rate on July 24, 2026, which had itself replaced the previously higher IEEPA rates after the Court's February 2026 ruling.

The flat 10% Section 122 tariff was subject to a 150-day statutory time limit and expired on July 24, 2026. It was replaced the same day by USTR's Section 301 forced-labor tariff — a two-tier 10%/12.5% duty on roughly 60 economies (about 99.4% of US imports by value), broader than the earlier 46-country proposal. Guatemala's current 10% base surcharge is that forced-labor rate; in August 2026, 25 states sued at the Court of International Trade to block it, but CBP continues collecting it while the case proceeds.

Woven Clothing (HTS Chapter 62) carry an average MFN duty rate of 12% in addition to the base forced-labor tariff. No additional Section 232 or Section 301 surcharges apply to most products in this category from Guatemala.

Guatemala is party to the CAFTA-DR, which may provide preferential or duty-free access for qualifying woven clothing. Importers should verify rules of origin requirements to take advantage of preferential rates.

Key products in HTS Chapter 62 imported from Guatemala include Suits and blazers, Dress shirts, Trousers, Dresses, Jackets and coats, and Skirts.

How did the Supreme Court ruling affect woven clothing imports from Guatemala?
