To Implement Certain Provisions in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, and for Other Purposes

President Donald J. Trump issued this proclamation to carry out trade-related provisions in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026 by updating the U.S. tariff schedule. It extends through December 31, 2026, duty-free treatment under the African Growth and Opportunity Act for eligible sub-Saharan African countries, including related apparel and third-country fabric programs, and it also extends Haiti’s preferential tariff treatment through the same date. The proclamation restores Gabon as a beneficiary sub-Saharan African country under AGOA after determining that it now meets the legal eligibility requirements. It also makes technical corrections to tariff schedule language and directs federal agencies, including the U.S. Trade Representative, to take the steps needed to implement these changes.
