In an Executive Order (EO) published on November 20, 2025, the White House announced the exemption of 238 tariff schedule subheadings of agricultural products from the 40% additional International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) on Brazil.

A Cargo Systems Messaging Service (CSMS) bulletin was issued alongside the EO, offering detailed guidance on how to file entries under the new changes. To ensure exemption from the 40% tariff, goods should be classified under Heading 9903.01.90.

This EO is being applied retroactively, applying to “goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on November 13, 2025.”
