To prohibit the imposition of additional tariffs on coffee imported from countries to which the United States has extended normal trade relations, and for other purposes.
Summary
This bill prohibits the imposition of tariffs on coffee and coffee-related products imported from countries with which the United States has normal trade relations if the tariffs exceed the rates that were in effect on January 19, 2025. The bill applies to roasted or unroasted coffee, decaffeinated coffee, coffee husks and skins, and coffee substitutes containing coffee in any proportion. The prohibition applies regardless of any other law or regulation that might authorize tariffs on a country-by-country basis, including tariffs imposed under emergency authorities. The effect is to freeze tariff rates on coffee imports at their January 19, 2025 levels for countries with established normal trade relations with the United States.
