Modifying Duties To Address Threats to the United States by the Government of the Russian Federation

Executive Order 14384 is an executive action signed by President (name not specified in the order) that removes an additional ad valorem rate of duty (a tax based on the value of imported goods) of 25 percent on products of India imposed by Executive Order 14329. The order terminates specific tariff headings and lets U.S. Customs and Border Protection process refunds if duties were collected (Sec. 2). The Department of State and other agencies get authority to issue rules to implement the change (Sec. 3(a)). This matters because it directly affects import taxes and trade rules that can influence prices, jobs, and business decisions for importers and consumers (Sec. 2; Sec. 3).
