What does Executive Order 14382 do?

EO 14382 described an Iran-related national emergency and imposed additional ad valorem duties under IEEPA through its stated mechanism. EO 14389, signed February 20, 2026, directed that the additional duties imposed by EO 14382 and several other orders no longer be in effect or collected. EO 14389 expressly preserved the underlying emergencies and other actions that did not impose those additional IEEPA duties.

Later evidence reviewed September 27, 2026: EO 14389 ended EO 14382's additional IEEPA duties, not the underlying emergency or every Iran-related measure.

Administration position: The threat findings are presidential determinations. Ending the IEEPA duties did not amount to a finding that every asserted threat had ended.

Reading the operative provisions of Executive Order 14382

EO 14382 declares an Iran-related national emergency and authorized an additional tariff measure involving countries that trade with Iran. It directs agencies to assess the relevant trade and administer the tariff under the order’s terms. The Federal Register text of EO 14382 states the emergency and tariff mechanism; it does not make every import from every country subject to the same additional rate without agency determinations.

The order’s emergency declaration and its tariff are separable. EO 14389 ended collection of the specified additional ad valorem duties fourteen days later, while leaving the described emergency and other non-tariff measures in place. This later action narrows the tariff effect but does not mean EO 14382 was wholly revoked. Importers should consult the later order and customs instructions for the duty status of entries.

Other sanctions or export controls concerning Iran arise under separate legal authorities and may remain in force even when a tariff ends. A tariff on a third country’s goods because of its trade with Iran is also distinct from blocking a person’s property or prohibiting a direct transaction with Iran. These programs should not be conflated. For a particular shipment or transaction, check the applicable current statute, executive order and Treasury or CBP guidance.

Before and after

Before the order

Iran sanctions and emergency authorities already operated under statutes, regulations and earlier presidential actions.

After the order

EO 14382 added an IEEPA tariff response.

EO 14389 ended collection of that additional-duty action but preserved the emergency and non-tariff measures; other Iran sanctions therefore require separate status checks.
