Section 232 Inclusion Request - Accuride Corporation

A measure identified as “BIS 2025 0023 0669” with type “232” refers to a trade action associated with Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act. Section 232 measures address imports that the U.S. government determines may affect national security. The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) may administer or publish related requirements, but the exact product scope and import treatment must be confirmed in the official measure details.

These measures typically affect importers of specifically identified goods, based on factors such as the product’s Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) classification, country of origin, and sometimes product form or composition. The measure may involve an additional duty, an alternative tariff treatment, a quota, an exclusion, or another condition. It matters because an importer can owe charges or need supporting documentation even when the ordinary tariff classification appears correct.

What to check

• Confirm the exact HTSUS provisions and product descriptions covered; do not rely on a broad product name alone.
• Verify the product’s legal country of origin and review any rules for goods processed, melted, manufactured, or assembled in another country.
• Check whether the measure requires an additional tariff classification, Chapter 99 reporting, quota handling, exclusion approval, or other entry documentation.
• Review the official measure text and current CBP and BIS guidance for scope, effective treatment, and filing instructions before entry.
• Ask a licensed customs broker or trade counsel to review borderline classifications, origin questions, exclusions, or quota eligibility.
