Proclamation 10328 of December 27, 2021 

Adjusting Imports of Steel Into the United States 

By the President of the United States of America 

A Proclamation 

1. On January 11, 2018, the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) transmitted 

to the President a report on the Secretary’s investigation into the effect 

of imports of steel mill articles (steel articles) on the national security 

of the United States under section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 

1962, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1862). The Secretary found and advised the 

President of his opinion that steel articles are being imported into the 

United States in such quantities and under such circumstances as to threaten 

to impair the national security of the United States. 

2. In Proclamation 9705 of March 8, 2018 (Adjusting Imports of Steel Into 

the United States), the President concurred in the Secretary’s finding that 

steel articles, as defined in clause 1 of Proclamation 9705, as amended 

by clause 8 of Proclamation 9711 of March 22, 2018 (Adjusting Imports 

of Steel Into the United States), are being imported into the United States 

in such quantities and under such circumstances as to threaten to impair 

the national security of the United States, and decided to adjust the imports 

of those steel articles by imposing a 25 percent ad valorem tariff on such 

articles imported from all countries except Canada and Mexico. The proclamation further stated that any country with which we have a security 

relationship is welcome to discuss with the United States alternative ways 

to address the threatened impairment of the national security caused by 

imports from that country, and noted that, should the United States and 

any such country arrive at a satisfactory alternative means to address the 

threat to the national security such that the President determines that imports 

from that country no longer threaten to impair the national security, the 

President may remove or modify the restriction on steel articles imports 

from that country and, if necessary, adjust the tariff as it applies to other 

countries, as the national security interests of the United States require. 

3. In Proclamation 9711, the President noted the continuing discussions 

with the European Union (EU) on behalf of its member countries on satisfactory alternative means to address the threatened impairment to the national 

security by imports of steel articles from these countries. Recognizing that 

the member countries of the EU have an important security relationship 

with the United States, the President determined that the necessary and 

appropriate means to address the threat to the national security posed by 

imports of steel articles from these countries was to continue the ongoing 

discussions and to exempt steel articles imports from these countries from 

the tariff proclaimed in Proclamation 9705 until May 1, 2018. In Proclamation 

9740 of April 30, 2018 (Adjusting Imports of Steel Into the United States), 

the President noted that, unless the President determines by further proclamation that the United States has reached a satisfactory alternative means 

to remove the threatened impairment to the national security by imports 

of steel articles from the member countries of the EU, the tariff proclaimed 

in Proclamation 9705 shall be effective June 1, 2018, for these countries. 

4. The United States has successfully concluded discussions with the EU 

on behalf of its member countries on satisfactory alternative means to address 

the threatened impairment of the national security posed by steel articles

12 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 1 / Monday, January 3, 2022 / Presidential Documents 

imports from the EU. The United States and the EU have agreed to expand 

coordination involving trade remedies and customs matters, monitor bilateral 

steel and aluminum trade, cooperate on addressing non-market excess capacity, and annually review their arrangement for alternative means and their 

ongoing cooperation. In addition, the United States and the EU will seek 

to conclude, by October 31, 2023, negotiations on global steel and aluminum 

arrangements to restore market-oriented conditions and support the reduction 

of carbon intensity of steel and aluminum across modes of production. 

5. The United States will implement a number of actions, including a 

tariff-rate quota that restricts the quantity of steel articles imported into 

the United States from the EU without the application of the tariff proclaimed 

in Proclamation 9705. Under the arrangement, steel articles that are melted 

and poured in the EU are eligible for in-quota treatment. In my judgment, 

these measures will provide an effective, long-term alternative means to 

address any contribution by EU steel articles imports to the threatened 

impairment of the national security by restraining steel articles imports 

to the United States from the EU, limiting transshipment, discouraging excess 

steel capacity and production, and strengthening the United States-EU partnership in a fashion that will better enable future arrangements. In light 

of this agreement, I have determined that specified volumes of eligible 

steel articles imports from the EU will no longer threaten to impair the 

national security and have decided to exclude such imports from the EU 

up to a designated quota from the tariff proclaimed in Proclamation 9705 

through December 31, 2023. The United States will monitor the implementation and effectiveness of the tariff-rate quota and other measures agreed 

upon with the EU in addressing our national security needs, and I may 

revisit this determination, as appropriate. 

6. The alternative means, including the tariff-rate quota, advance the recommendations contained in the Secretary’s January 2018 report. The agreedupon aggregate tariff-rate quota volume specified in the agreement between 

the United States and the EU, totaling 3.3 million metric tons, is consistent 

with the objective of reaching and maintaining a sufficient capacity utilization 

rate in the domestic steel industry. 

7. The United States also agreed to renew for 2 calendar years all exclusions 

that were granted and utilized to import steel products tariff-free from the 

EU in Fiscal Year 2021. These exclusions were granted by the Department 

of Commerce due to a lack of domestic availability of the specified products 

in the United States. 

8. In light of my determination to adjust the tariff proclaimed in Proclamation 

9705 as applied to eligible steel articles imported from the EU, I have 

considered whether it is necessary and appropriate in light of our national 

security interests to make any corresponding adjustments to such tariff as 

it applies to other countries. I have determined that it is necessary and 

appropriate, at this time, to maintain the current tariff level as it applies 

to other countries. 

9. Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended, authorizes 

the President to adjust the imports of an article and its derivatives that 

are being imported into the United States in such quantities or under such 

circumstances as to threaten to impair the national security. 

10. Section 604 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2483), 

authorizes the President to embody in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTSUS) the substance of statutes affecting import treatment, and actions thereunder, including the removal, modification, continuance, or imposition of any rate of duty or other import restriction. 

NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States 

of America, by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the 

laws of the United States of America, including section 232 of the Trade 

Expansion Act of 1962, as amended, section 301 of title 3, United States

31, 2023, for steel articles covered by headings 9903.80.65 through 

9903.81.19, inclusive. Further, except as otherwise provided in notices published pursuant to clause 3 of this proclamation, all steel articles imports

(3) The first two sentences of clause 1 of Proclamation 9980 of January 

24, 2020 (Adjusting Imports of Derivative Aluminum Articles and Derivative 

Steel Articles Into the United States), are revised to read as follows: 

‘‘In order to establish increases in the duty rate on imports of certain 

derivative articles, subchapter III of chapter 99 of the HTSUS is modified 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PRESDOC2
14 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 1 / Monday, January 3, 2022 / Presidential Documents 

as provided in Annex I and Annex II to this proclamation. Except as otherwise 

provided in this proclamation, all imports of derivative aluminum articles 

specified in Annex I to this proclamation shall be subject to an additional 

10 percent ad valorem rate of duty, and all imports of derivative steel 

articles specified in Annex II to this proclamation shall be subject to an 

additional 25 percent ad valorem rate of duty, with respect to goods entered 

for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, as follows: 

(i) on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on February 8, 2020, these 

rates of duty, which are in addition to any other duties, fees, exactions, 

and charges applicable to such imported derivative aluminum articles or 

steel articles, shall apply to imports of derivative aluminum articles described 

in Annex I to this proclamation from all countries except Argentina, the 

Commonwealth of Australia (Australia), Canada, and the United Mexican 

States (Mexico) and to imports of derivative steel articles described in Annex 

II to this proclamation from all countries except Argentina, Australia, Brazil, 

Canada, Mexico, and South Korea and; (ii) on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern 

standard time on January 1, 2022, these rates of duty, which are in addition 

to any other duties, fees, exactions, and charges applicable to such imported 

derivative aluminum articles or steel articles, shall apply to imports of 

derivative aluminum articles described in Annex I to this proclamation 

from all countries except Argentina, Australia, Canada, the member countries 

of the European Union and Mexico and to imports of derivative steel articles 

described in Annex II to this proclamation from all countries except Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, the member countries of the European Union, 

Mexico, and South Korea.’’ 

(4) Steel eligible for treatment under clause 1 of this proclamation must 

be melted and poured in a member country of the EU in order to receive 

such treatment. The Secretary, in consultation with the Secretary of Homeland Security and the United States Trade Representative, is authorized 

to take such actions as are necessary to ensure compliance with this requirement. Failure to comply could result in applicable remedies such as the 

collection of the tariff set forth in clause 2 of Proclamation 9705, or penalties 

under United States law. 

(5) Steel articles from a member country of the EU imported under an 

exclusion granted pursuant to clause 3 of Proclamation 9705, as amended, 

shall not count against the in-quota volume of the tariff-rate quota established 

in clause 1 of this proclamation. 

(6) The Secretary is directed to renew all utilized exclusions granted 

pursuant to clause 3 of Proclamation 9705, as amended, in Fiscal Year 

2021 (October 1, 2020, through September 30, 2021), for the import of 

steel articles from one or more member countries of the EU for a period 

of 2 years from the date of this proclamation. The renewed exclusions 

shall be for an annual volume equal to that volume imported from a member 

country of the EU pursuant to the exclusion in Fiscal Year 2021. The 

Secretary shall communicate to U.S. Customs and Border Protection of the 

Department of Homeland Security the exclusions and the volumes of steel 

articles from member countries of the EU that are allowed under this provision. The Secretary shall, by publication on the Internet, or by other means, 

inform importers of the availability and volume of exclusions renewed by 

this provision. This provision does not alter or modify in any way the 

ability of importers to seek additional exclusions in accordance with clause 

3 of Proclamation 9705, as amended, and as implemented by the Department 

of Commerce, for the import of steel articles from a member country of 

the EU. 

(7) The Secretary shall, within 45 days of the issuance of this proclamation, 

publish in the Federal Register a notice seeking comments from interested 

parties on the exclusion process as set forth in Supplement No. 1 to part 

705 of title 15 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Issues to be included 

for comment should include the responsiveness of the exclusion process 

to market demand and enhanced consultation with United States firms and 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PRESDOC2
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 1 / Monday, January 3, 2022 / Presidential Documents 15 

labor organizations. Within 60 days of the close of the comment period 

of the notice, the Secretary shall issue a proposed regulation revising the 

exclusion process as deemed appropriate following consideration of such 

comments. In carrying out the review of the exclusion process, the Secretary 

shall review whether the criteria for review of exclusion requests in clause 

3 of Proclamation 9705 that the ‘‘steel article determined not to be produced 

in the United States in a sufficient and reasonably available amount or 

of a satisfactory quality and is also authorized to provide such relief based 

upon specific national security considerations’’ and clause 3 of Proclamation 

9704 that the ‘‘aluminum article determined not to be produced in the 

United States in a sufficient and reasonably available amount or of a satisfactory quality and is also authorized to provide such relief based upon specific 

national security considerations’’ continues to be the appropriate criterion 

for making determinations. The Secretary is authorized to make such changes 

to the criteria as the Secretary deems necessary and shall issue a final 

rule implementing such changes within 60 days of the comment period 

on the proposed regulation. 

(8) The Secretary, in coordination with the Secretary of State and the 

heads of other executive departments and agencies as necessary, shall establish a process to assist United States steel and aluminum consumers in 

identifying suppliers in those trading partners with which the United States 

has negotiated an arrangement under section 232 of the Trade Expansion 

Act of 1962, as amended, that can provide the relevant product. 

(9) On a regular basis, the Department of Commerce shall publish on 

its website the volume of steel articles imported under exclusions issued 

pursuant to clause 3 of Proclamation 9705, as amended. 

(10) The modifications to the HTSUS made by clause 1 of this proclamation 

shall be effective with respect to goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern 

standard time on January 1, 2022, and shall continue in effect, unless such 

actions are expressly reduced, modified, or terminated. 

(11) Any imports of steel articles from the member countries of the EU 

that were admitted into a United States foreign trade zone under ‘‘privileged 

foreign status’’ as defined in 19 CFR 146.41, prior to 12:01 a.m. eastern 

standard time on January 1, 2022, shall be subject upon entry for consumption 

made on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on January 1, 2022, 

to the provisions of the tariff-rate quota in effect at the time of the entry 

for consumption. 

(12) Any provision of previous proclamations and Executive Orders that 

is inconsistent with the actions taken in this proclamation is superseded 

to the extent of such inconsistency.

ANNEX 

TO MODIFY CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF CHAPTER 99 OF 

THE HARMONIZED TARIFF SCHEDULE OF THE UNITED STATES 

Effective with respect to goods entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 

12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on January 1, 2022, subchapter Ill of chapter 99 of the Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) is modified as follows, with the material in the new tariff 

provisions inserted in the columns labeled "Heading/Subheading", "Article Description", "Rates of Duty 

1-General", "Rates of Duty 1-Special," and "Rates of Duty 2", respectively: 

1. The text of the first sentence of subdivision (a)(i) of U.S. note 16 to such subchapter is modified to 

read as follows: 

"Heading 9903.80.01 provides the ordinary customs duty treatment of iron or steel products of 

all countries-

(i) other than products of the United States, or 

(ii) other than products of countries expressly exempt therefrom, pursuant to the article 

description of such heading and the terms of subdivisions (e) or (f) of this note, and 

other than any iron or steel products of specified countries allowed to enter under a tariff-rate 

quota established for any such country under the terms of this note." 

2. The text of subdivision (b) of such U.S. note 16 is modified by adding below clause (b)(v) the sentence 

"Any reference above to iron or steel products classifiable in any heading or subheading of chapter 72 or 

73, as the case may be, shall mean that any good provided for in the article description of such heading 

or subheading and of all its subordinate provisions (both legal and statistical) is covered by the 

provisions of this note and related tariff provisions." The text of subdivisions (b) and (d) of such U.S. 

note 16 are each modified by deleting "heading 9903.80.01" and by inserting in lieu thereof "heading 

9903.80.01 and subheadings 9903.80.05 through 9903.80.58 and 9903.80.65 through 9903.81.19, 

inclusive,". 

3. The following new subdivision (f) is hereby inserted at the end of such U.S. note 16: 

"(f) Subheadings 9903.80.65 through 9903.81.19, inclusive, set forth the ordinary customs duty 

treatment for the iron or steel products (as enumerated in subdivision (b) of this note) of any 

member country of the European Union enumerated in this subdivision. The aggregate annual 

import volume under subheadings 9903.80.65 through 9903.81.19 shall be limited to 3,300,170 

metric tons. Subheadings 9903.80.65 through 9903.81.19 shall also be subject to any aggregate 

annual quantity established for each such subheading, including any allocations or other 

limitations that may be announced, all as set forth on the Internet site of the Department of 

Commerce at the following link: [https://bis.doc.gov/232-steel]. No such country shall be 
18 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 1 / Monday, January 3, 2022 / Presidential Documents

allowed to import an aggregate quantity under any such subheading during any of the periods 

January through March, April through June, July through September or October through 

December in any year that is in excess of the quantity that is allocated to such country by the 

Department of Commerce, as set forth on the Internet site of such Department as noted herein. 

The Department of Commerce is authorized to carry forward any unused quantity of such 

product from one or more such countries from the first quarter of any calendar year to the third 

quarter of such year, or from the second quarter of any calendar year to the fourth quarter of 

such year. Entries of any product of any such member country that may be described in an 

exclusion granted by the Department of Commerce shall be eligible to utilize such exclusion 

upon proper claim therefor, and such entries shall not be counted against the annual aggregate 

quantitative limitation set forth in this subdivision. 

The member countries of the European Union that are covered by this subdivision and by 

heading 9903.80.03 and subheadings 9903.80.65 through 9903.81.19 shall include the following: 

Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia (Czech Republic), Denmark, Estonia, Finland, 

France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, 

Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden." 

4. The article description of heading 9903.80.01 is modified by inserting after "of South Korea," the 

phrase "of member countries of the European Union specified in subdivision (f) of such U.S. note 16, 

under any provisions that may be established by the Department of Commerce under such U.S. note 

16,". 

5. The article description of heading 9903.80.03 is modified by adding after "of South Korea," the 

phrase "of member countries of the European Union enumerated in note 16(f) to this subchapter,".
