The U.S. Federal Register has posted a sweeping set of new tariffs that will be effective at 12:01am on March 4 2025:
- 10% on Canadian energy resources
- 25% on all other Canadian goods
- 25% on all Mexican goods.
Canadian Tariffs: Details
Mexican Tariffs: Details
The definition of energy resources covers propane from Canada. Cross-border propane sales from Canada into the U.S. are roughly $1.9 Billion annually.
These tariffs stack on top of 25% sector-wide tariffs on steel, aluminum, and derivative products, which impact certain propane industry parts and equipment.
No exclusionary process is available for any of these tariffs.
NPGA has two webinars scheduled to discuss these tariffs with its trade counsel:
-
March 5 at 1pm ET with the NPGA marketers section and propane supply & logistics committee—focus will be on propane from Canada (please contact ESears@npga.org for an invitation if you do not have one and would like to attend).
-
March 12 at 2pm ET with the NPGA manufacturers section—focus will be on parts and equipment (please contact CWagner@npga.org for an invitation if you do not have one and would like to attend).
NPGA’s trade counsel will develop a full synopsis of this tariffs action, which NPGA plans to make available in the Bobtail on Thursday.
NPGA will continue to advocate and educate across Congress and the Administration alongside our partners, including the Canadian Propane Association (CPA) and like-minded industries. A joint NPGA-CPA statement is available for dissemination.
For questions, please contact NPGA President and CEO, Steve Kaminski.
