A U.S. appeals court on Thursday extended its block on a lower court ruling against the Trump administration's 10% global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act, keeping the tariffs in place for three importers that ​had won a reprieve from the duties last week.

The decision from ⁠the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit allows the U.S. ​to continue collecting tariffs from three importers while the ⁠government's appeal plays out.

The U.S. trade court ruled against the new tariffs on May 7, but did not ‌widely block their collection.

The three ​importers impacted ‌by the ruling are two small businesses and the state of ‌Washington, which paid tariffs on purchases by the University of Washington.

The Trump administration appealed, and ⁠the appeals court on ‌May 12 temporarily ⁠allowed tariffs to resume for the three importers who won ⁠in ⁠lower court.

The 10% global tariff was imposed in February, ‌after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down most of the tariffs that Trump imposed in 2025.

The 10% ‌global ​tariff is scheduled ‌to expire in July, unless extended by Congress.

The latest global tariffs were imposed ​under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974.
