(Date: October 20, 2025) This document clarifies that Section 232 tariffs on imported steel, aluminum, and copper products are applied as a set percentage of the total customs value of the imported goods—not just the value of their metal content—based on U.S. Customs valuation principles under 19 U.S.C. 1401a.
