President Trump has issued a new Proclamation under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act delaying scheduled tariff increases on upholstered furniture, kitchen cabinets, and vanities for one additional year. The tariff increase, originally set for January 1, 2026, will be postponed as the U.S. continues negotiations with key trade partners.

The current 25% tariff on certain products remains in effect. The Administration cited national security concerns tied to reliance on foreign lumber and wood products, while emphasizing that the delay is intended to allow further progress in ongoing trade discussions.

Businesses importing affected products should plan for continued 25% tariffs through 2026, with no near-term escalation.

Shapiro will continue to monitor developments closely and provide updates as new information becomes available.
