The EU’s additional customs duties on US imports
We update this page with information about the additional customs duties imposed by the EU on US imports.
What is additional customs duty?
Additional customs duty is a duty added on top of the general customs duty.
When will the EU’s additional customs duties enter into force and on what goods?
In spring 2025, the EU imposed additional customs duties on US imports as a countermeasure to the additional tariffs imposed by the US. However, the additional customs duties imposed by the EU have been suspended until 6 August 2025 (Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1446). The duration of the suspension may, however, still change.
Additional customs duties have been imposed on a large number of products. On the page Anti-dumping and countervailing duties as well as safeguard duties, i.e. additional duties, there are links to the annexes to Commission regulations listing the commodity codes of the products subject to additional customs duties as well as the rates (%) of the additional customs duties.
Additional customs duties only apply to goods that are mentioned in the regulation and that are subject to the so-called general rules of origin for goods originating in the United States. Read more about the general origin of goods.
Can preferential treatment based on origin be obtained for goods imported from the United States?
Preferential treatment based on origin cannot be obtained for goods imported from the United States, because there are no preferential tariff agreements between the EU and the US. Read more about preferential treatment based on origin.
The EU’s general rules of origin are applied to imports of goods subject to additional customs duties. If you are exporting goods to the United States, please note that the United States has its own rules of origin concerning imports.
I am exporting goods to the United States. What should I take into account?
This year, the United States has introduced several new import duties. In addition to the standard customs duties, products imported from the EU are subject to a general 10 per cent additional duty as well as to a 50 per cent additional duty on steel and aluminium products.
Finnish Customs cannot provide more information on US import duties. You can check the applicable tariff rates with the United States’ authorities. You can find more information e.g. regarding specific commodity codes on the page Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
The new US tariff information has already been taken into account in the My Trade Assistant tool in the Access2Markets portal.
Please note that the EU is also considering imposing export restrictions on certain goods.
Also follow the information on the website of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs.
I am a private individual and I am ordering products from the United States. How should I take the additional customs duties into account?
You may have to pay an additional customs duty for the product if the value of the consignment is more than 150 euros. In that case, the additional duty is also paid on the transport costs.
You can check the products subject to additional customs duties on the page Anti-dumping and countervailing duties as well as safeguard duties, i.e. additional duties, in the annexes to Commission regulations listing the commodity codes of these products as well as the rates (%) of the additional customs duties. You can also contact the Customs Information Service for advice.
