Import bans on some Canadian products on the Section 338 lists take effect
From Sep 29, 2026, certain Canadian products on the Section 338 alcoholic-beverages, dairy and motor-vehicles lists can't be imported at all. Goods imported before then can still be entered and pay the 50% duty; other listed products keep paying 50%.
Proclamations 11061 (alcoholic beverages, 91 FR 58311), 11062 (dairy, 91 FR 58319) and 11063 (motor vehicles, 91 FR 58325), signed Sep 8, 2026 under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, exclude from importation certain Canadian products listed in their annexes, for goods imported on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern time on Sep 29, 2026. They respond to what they call Canada's continued discrimination against U.S. commerce in those three areas.
CBP says entries containing covered products are "unconditionally rejected", and the goods can't be admitted to a foreign-trade zone or bonded warehouse or moved in bond. The covered products fall under headings 0404, 1702, 1703, 2202 to 2208 and 8711. For alcoholic beverages marked "Packaged" in the annex, the ban applies "only to products packaged in bottles, cans, boxes, kegs, or other similar direct-to-consumption containers"; others still pay the 50% duty.
Covered goods imported before Sep 29, 2026 can still be entered for consumption, including from a bonded warehouse or foreign-trade zone, and pay the 50% duty. Listed products that aren't banned keep paying 50%. Program pages: alcoholic beverages, dairy, motor vehicles.
