  • 2025-03728 — Amendment to Duties To Address the Flow of Illicit Drugs Across Our Northern Border
    Type:Presidential Document
    Citation:90 FR 11369
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    In Executive Order 14226, the President is updating a previous order regarding duties on items crossing the northern border to help reduce the flow of illegal drugs. This amendment specifically changes how certain goods are treated under a policy that allows duty-free treatment for small shipments, known as de minimis treatment. This exemption will no longer apply once the Secretary of Commerce confirms that the standard processes for collecting tariffs are in place. The order clarifies that it does not alter any legal authority and does not grant any new legal rights to individuals.

    Simple Explanation

    The president made a new rule about packages coming from the north to stop bad drugs from sneaking in. It says that unless some special systems are ready, little packages may no longer skip paying their fees.

  • 2025-02512 — Amendment to Duties Addressing the Synthetic Opioid Supply Chain in the People's Republic of China
    Type:Presidential Document
    Citation:90 FR 9277
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The President issued Executive Order 14200, which amends a previous order regarding tariffs on goods related to the synthetic opioid supply chain from China. The amendment allows certain goods that are typically duty-free to remain so, unless the Secretary of Commerce tells the President that the systems for collecting tariffs are working well. Additionally, the order clarifies that it doesn't change the authority of any government department or create new legal rights for anyone against the government.

    Simple Explanation

    The President made a new rule about when America will put taxes on things they get from China that are part of making bad medicines, like opioids. Some items can still come in without extra costs, but only until the government figures out a good way to collect these taxes fairly.
