The 14 proposed derivative articles named in Federal Register notice 2026-15961 (August 6, 2026). The Bureau of Industry and Security is soliciting public comment through August 27, 2026 on adding these categories -- welding-machine parts, fire extinguishers, floor safes, several trailer and crane classes, and others -- to Section 232 tariff coverage. If your product falls into one of these headings, you have standing to file a comment (an inclusion rebuttal) opposing the addition.

Paste your 10-digit HTS code. The tool takes the first 4 digits (the HTSUS heading) and compares them against the 4-digit heading prefixes each of the 14 proposed articles falls under. If the headings match, we call it a hit and deep-link you to the article-specific inclusion-rebuttal template. If your code is in the same chapter as a BIS-14 heading but not the exact heading, we flag it as adjacent worth reviewing. If nothing matches, we tell you plainly.

No. Every match is at medium confidence because BIS has not yet published a finalized 8-10 digit HTS annex for FR 2026-15961; the 4-digit heading map here is TariffWatch's own best-effort mapping using standard WCO/HTSUS nomenclature. Always verify against the Federal Register notice itself and consult a licensed customs broker or trade counsel before filing.

BIS is required to consider all timely-filed public comments before finalizing the rule. Regulations.gov docket BIS-2026-15961 collects them; each comment receives a docket ID and appears in the public record. There is no formal reply from BIS to individual comments, but the final rule's preamble typically summarizes and addresses the substantive comment categories.

No -- a Section 232 inclusion rebuttal comment is a public submission under 5 U.S.C. § 553(c). Any affected party can file. The template on each article page walks through the 10 sections BIS historically weighed in derivative-article rulemakings (product description, US production capacity, national-security nexus, domestic-supplier check, economic hardship, alternative sourcing, precedent citations). Trade counsel is helpful for high-value exposures but not required.

Up to 50 in a single batch. Paste one per line (or comma/space separated). Rate limit is 60 individual code checks per hour per IP; batches count as one request.
