Section 232 Quota and TRQ Entries Must be Filed by 4:30 p.m. Today

All Section 232 quota and tariff-rate quota entries must be presented to CBP by 4:30 p.m. today, local port time, to avoid tariffs that snap back into effect March 12 for certain countries, said CBP in a CSMS message. While Section 232 country exemptions and TRQs for Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, EU countries, Japan, Mexico, South Korea and the U.K. expire at midnight, CBP regulations require that quota entries be filed only during CBP’s official office hours.

“Entries that do not achieve quota status by 4:30 p.m. local port time on March 11, 2025, do not qualify for the Section 232 quotas and must be refiled as non-quota entries on March 12, 2025,” CBP said.
