Imports from Mexico enter the US duty-free when they qualify under USMCA rules of origin — the typical outcome for most Mexico-origin shipments in this category. Portigo doesn't determine qualification; that depends on how and where the goods were made. Goods that don't qualify face approximately 26.5% in combined duties: the MFN base rate of 16.5% plus a 10% Section 122 emergency tariff, set to expire July 24, 2026. A May 2026 Court of International Trade ruling found Section 122 exceeds presidential authority, but CBP continues collecting it pending appeal.
