regarding automobile parts inclusion requests.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 26, 2025, the President issued 
Proclamation 10908, ``Adjusting Imports of Automobiles and Automobile 
Parts Into the United States'' (Automobile Proclamation). This 
proclamation imposed specified rates of duty on imports of automobiles 
and certain automobile parts.
    The Automobile Proclamation also required the Secretary of Commerce 
to establish a process for including additional automobile parts within 
the scope of the duties established in the Automobile Proclamation. An 
interim final rule (IFR) published on September 17, 2025 (90 FR 44767) 
established a process for including additional automobile parts within 
the scope of the duties authorized by the President under section 232 
of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended (Section 232). This IFR 
established recurring two-week windows each year for submissions of 
automobile parts in January, April, July, and October, beginning on the 
first of those months.
    This notice announces the opening of the January 2026 inclusions 
window for submissions for automobile parts for two weeks starting on 
January 1, 2026, and closing at 11:59 p.m. ET on January 14, 2026. 
Requests must be submitted to the automobile parts inclusion inbox at 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#6d2c18190224030e01181e0402031e2d191f0c0908430a021b"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="1a5b6f6e75537479766f69737574695a6e687b7e7f347d756c">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>. Following the close of the submission window, 
accepted inclusion requests will be posted for a two-week public 
comment period on Docket ID ITA-2025-0039 on <a href="http://Regulations.gov">Regulations.gov</a>. See the 
prior published IFR for details on the inclusions submission process.
    Prior to submission, please ensure that automobile parts being 
submitted for consideration are not already within the scope of the 
duties imposed by the Automobile Proclamation. Furthermore, if a 
decision has not been made on a previously submitted inclusions 
request, please do not submit an additional request with the same 
automobile parts unless new pertinent information is available for 
consideration.

    Dated: December 8, 2025.
Lev Krutz,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Manufacturing. United States Department 
of Commerce.
