CBP Quota Guidance for U.S. Steel and Aluminum Imports


In response to the Feb. 10 White House executive orders adjusting U.S. imports of steel and aluminum, all Section 232 tariff rate and absolute quotas for these commodities will expire today, March 11.


Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said in a CSMS to the trade that “all Section 232 tariff rate and absolute quotas entries must be presented to CBP during official office hours per 19 CFR 132.3, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. local port time, on March 11, 2025.”


The agency added that, “Entries that do not achieve quota status by 4:30 p.m. local port time on March 11, 2025, do not qualify for the Section 232 quotas and must be refiled as non-quota entries on March 12, 2025.”


Reference FRN 2025-02833 and FRN 2025-02832 for additional information. For additional steel filling information, see CSMS 64348411, while for additional aluminum filing information, reference CSMS 64348288. For information on the new HTS numbers required, see the 232 HTS chart.
