No Coffee Tax Act
This bill freezes U.S. import tariffs on coffee products at their existing rate as of January 19, 2025, preventing any future increases. It directly affects businesses importing coffee into the United States, including roasted beans, coffee husks, and coffee-based substitutes, from countries with normal trade relations. The law ensures tariffs on these items cannot exceed the current baseline, regardless of new trade policies or emergency situations. This creates certainty for importers by maintaining the status quo for coffee-related tariffs.
