Kitchen Appliances Import Tariff Rates by Country (2026)

A coffee maker from China faces approximately 3% MFN plus 7.5% Section 301 (List 4A) plus a 12.5% forced-labor Section 301 duty that backfilled the Section 122 surcharge after it lapsed to 0% on July 24, 2026, totaling around 23% effective tariff rate.

13 of the 59 HTS lines for kitchen appliances are on the Section 232 derivative steel and aluminum lists. The country rates quoted for this category apply to them only when the listed metal is under 15 percent of the article's weight. Otherwise, from most origins, 10 lines in 8509 and 8516 are charged +25% on top of the line's own MFN rate under HTSUS 9903.82.09; 3 lines in 8516 are charged MFN plus Section 232 totaling the higher of the line's own MFN rate and 15% under HTSUS 9903.82.10. The forced-labor Section 301 duty does not apply to these lines. From the United Kingdom, HTSUS 9903.82.05 (+15%) replaces 9903.82.09 where at least 95 percent of the steel was melted and poured, or of the aluminum smelted or most recently cast, in the United Kingdom. China's Section 301 list duty, where the line is on a Section 301 list, still applies on top. Brazil's Section 301 duty does not apply to these lines. From Belarus, Cuba and North Korea, 10 lines in 8509 and 8516 are charged +25% on top of the line's own column 2 rate under HTSUS 9903.82.09; 3 lines in 8516 are charged +25% on top of the line's own column 2 rate under HTSUS 9903.82.12. From Russia, 2 lines in 8516 are charged +25% on top of the line's own column 2 rate under HTSUS 9903.82.09; 8 lines in 8509 and 8516 are charged +25% on top of the line's own column 2 rate under HTSUS 9903.82.16; 3 lines in 8516 are charged +25% on top of the line's own column 2 rate under HTSUS 9903.82.17. Every tier applies only when the listed metal is at least 15 percent of the article's weight (U.S. note 16(c)). Below that, the importer claims HTSUS 9903.82.03 and reports the metal's weight in kilograms; without that claim, the Section 232 heading is reported. A USMCA claim does not remove this tier. U.S. note 16(b) collects the Section 232 duty in addition to the preferential rate, so a qualifying good from Canada or Mexico on one of these lines still owes it.

The tariff authorities actually charged on this product from at least one origin are MFN duties, Section 301 tariffs, and forced-labor Section 301 tariffs. Which of them a given shipment pays depends on its origin country and its HTS classification.
