Adjusting Imports of Polysilicon and Its Derivatives Into the United States
This proclamation imposes minimum import prices (MIPs) and a 15% ad valorem tariff on polysilicon and downstream derivatives (ingots, wafers, solar cells, modules) effective December 4, 2026, to protect U.S. production capacity for semiconductor and solar supply chains. It also establishes an onshoring incentive program with construction deadlines by January 20, 2029, and includes differentiated tariff treatment for certain trading partners including the UK (10% rate) and EU/Japan/Korea/Taiwan/Switzerland/Liechtenstein (capped at 15% combined with Column 1 duties).
