AI Summary: This regulation addresses the application of multiple tariffs on imported articles by establishing a procedure to prevent the cumulative stacking of tariffs from different executive actions. Specifically, the executive order applies to tariffs imposed through various proclamations and orders related to automobiles, border security, aluminum, and steel imports. The regulation sets out rules for determining which tariffs will apply when an article is subject to multiple tariff actions, essentially preventing the total tariff rate from exceeding what is considered necessary to achieve policy goals. For example, if an article is subject to tariffs from the automobile import proclamation, it will not be subject to additional tariffs from border security or aluminum/steel import orders. The order also clarifies that other duties, taxes, and fees can still be applied in addition to these tariff measures. The implementation of this order will be managed by the Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection, and other relevant agencies, with changes to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule to be made by May 16, 2025, and applied retroactively to entries made on or after March 4, 2025.
