Section 232 Removed Products List 2026: Which HTS Codes Are No Longer Subject to Metals Tariffs

Section 232 removed products list updates are now one of the most important tariff developments of 2026, after Annex II officially removed a broad range of downstream derivative HTS codes from steel, aluminum, and copper tariff coverage.

This means many products that were previously captured under the expanded derivative tariff rules are now no longer subject to Section 232 metals duties, including certain furniture, seating, engines, lighting parts, motorcycle products, and exercise equipment.

For importers, this is one of the most important tariff scope changes of the year because many landed-cost models and internal duty sheets may still be applying outdated 232 assumptions.

Major HTS Codes Removed from Section 232

Some of the most commercially important HTS codes removed under Annex II include:

• 9401.71.00 — upholstered seats with metal frame
• 9401.79.00 — non-upholstered seats with metal frame
• 9403.10.00 — metal office furniture
• 9403.20.00 — other metal furniture
• 9403.99 series — furniture parts
• 8714.10.00 — motorcycle parts
• 8711 series — motorcycles
• 9506.91.00 — gym and exercise equipment
• 8407 / 8408 / 8409 series — engine and engine parts
• 9405.99.20 / 9405.99.40 — lighting fixture parts
• 7323.91 / 7323.92 — cast iron bakeware and kitchenware

These removals affect a wide range of consumer and industrial imports, especially in the furniture, lighting, fitness, marine, and motorcycle sectors.

What Importers Should Check Now

Even though these HTS codes were removed from Section 232 metals duties, importers should not assume the goods are now duty-free.

The removal simply means the steel, aluminum, and copper derivative 232 tariffs no longer apply.

The products may still remain subject to:

• Section 122 temporary surcharge
• Section 301 duties where applicable
• AD/CVD exposure
• PGA reporting requirements

This is why importers should immediately review:

• tariff databases
• ERP duty logic
• broker instructions
• customer landed-cost sheets
• historical quote templates

A product such as 9403.20 metal furniture, for example, may now shift from a higher metals-tariff exposure to only MFN plus the global surcharge framework. That can materially change resale pricing and margin calculations.

Bottom Line

The biggest practical takeaway from Annex II is that many finished goods containing steel, aluminum, or copper are no longer automatically exposed to Section 232 metals tariffs simply because they contain metal components.

Furniture, lighting parts, motorcycles, exercise machines, engines, and household cast-iron products are among the most important categories now removed from scope.

Importers should review active purchase orders and future landed-cost assumptions immediately to avoid overestimating duty exposure.

For official government filing guidance, CBP’s Section 232 steel and aluminum FAQ page remains one of the best references for checking scope and implementation questions.
