The revisions add several steel derivative products to Annex 1, including combined refrigerator-freezers, dryers, washing machines, dishwashers, freezers, cooking stoves, food waste disposals, and welded wire racks. These products will incur tariffs based on their steel content starting June 23, 2025. The value of the steel that originates from the United States will not be subject to the Section 232 duties.
