U.S. Imports of Plastics and rubber machinery From France

In 2025, U.S. importers brought in $94.1M of plastics and rubber machinery from France; USITC reported an effective calculated-duty rate of 8.78% for that flow. That makes France the 9th-largest named source of this family, at 2.8% of tracked plastics and rubber machinery imports. The family-wide effective calculated-duty rate is 10.63%, so France's observed rate is 1.9 points less than average. Freight and insurance add 3.44% on top of customs value. Tracked-family figures are a floor on total bilateral trade, from USITC DataWeb data.

Frequently asked questions

  • What tariff does the U.S. charge on plastics and rubber machinery from France? In 2025, USITC reported an effective calculated-duty rate of 8.78% for plastics and rubber machinery imported from France, calculated as reported Calculated Duties divided by covered customs value. It reflects the observed entry mix but does not identify the legal cause of the rate or determine an entry-specific duty.

The U.S. imported $94.1M of plastics and rubber machinery from France in 2025, 2.8% of the tracked plastics and rubber machinery it imports, ranking France the 9th-largest named source. The chart above traces the retained reported years; a year with no retained source row is unknown, not zero.

That is an additional import burden alongside the reported effective calculated-duty rate; a country-specific invoice price is still required for a comparable landed unit cost.

About this data

  • Reference statistics derived from USITC published data. Not a customs ruling. MFN-Free and Special-rate fields describe statutory line coverage only; final entry liability requires origin, date, eligibility, exclusions and other transaction facts. Calculated Duties are statistical estimates, not a cash-collections ledger. Confirm classification, origin, program eligibility, and final entry liability with a licensed customs broker.
