On May 7, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade issued an important decision regarding Section 122 tariffs, ruling in a 2-1 split decision that the tariffs are unlawful.

While the court found the Section 122 tariffs unlawful, the ruling does not automatically remove these tariffs for every importer, nor does it immediately create a universal refund process for all businesses that may have paid them.
