About Section 122 Tariff Windows

The 150-day period in tariffs regulations refers to a time limit on using certain trade laws. Specifically, Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 allows for the imposition of tariffs of up to 15% for a period of 150 days in response to a balance of payments deficit.

This is a temporary measure to address trade imbalances before a longer-term process can be initiated.

Key Features:

15% Tariff Limit: The tariffs imposed under Section 122 cannot exceed 15%.
150-Day Time Limit: Provides a limited window for addressing trade imbalances.
Temporary Measure: Allows time to consider other options like longer-term negotiations.

Why 150 days? This limit encourages swift response to trade issues while allowing for thorough investigation and negotiation.
