Section 232 Inclusion Request - Haas Automation

A measure labeled “type: 232” generally refers to a Section 232 trade action under US law. Section 232 measures address imports that the US government has determined may affect national security. The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) administers many Section 232 requirements, which can involve additional import duties, exclusions, quotas, licensing, reporting, or other entry conditions.

The identifier “BIS 2025 0023 0703” is a reference used to locate the relevant measure; it does not, by itself, tell you whether your product is covered or what treatment applies. Importers must match the product’s HTSUS classification, product description, country of origin, and any stated scope or effective provisions against the official measure. Coverage may apply to particular goods or derivative products, and treatment can vary based on origin, exclusions, quota arrangements, or documentation. A customs broker or trade-compliance professional should review uncertain classifications or scope questions.

What to check

• Confirm the product’s complete HTSUS classification, including any required statistical suffix, and do not rely only on a commercial product name.
• Read the measure’s scope carefully to determine whether it covers the product itself, a derivative product, or only specified materials, forms, or uses.
• Verify the product’s country of origin and check whether origin-specific rules, exemptions, quotas, exclusions, or special entry procedures apply.
• Review the official entry instructions and required documentation, including any declarations, exclusion references, licenses, or additional data elements.
• Ask a customs broker or trade attorney to confirm classification, origin, and Section 232 applicability when the product description or supply chain is complex.
