US import tariff rates for Philippines-origin electronics. Covers Infineon Clark, onsemi Carmona, Texas Instruments Manila, and HTS codes for packaged ICs.
The Philippines is a major global center for semiconductor assembly and test (ATP), hosting facilities from Infineon (Clark Freeport Zone), onsemi (Carmona, Laguna), Texas Instruments (Baguio, Carmona), and many others. Philippines-origin electronics face only the 10% Section 122 global surcharge in 2026 — no Section 301, no Section 232 for electronics.
Infineon's Clark Freeport Zone facility is one of the world's largest power semiconductor assembly sites. Products include power MOSFETs, gate drivers, motor control ICs, and IGBT modules — all packaged and tested in the Philippines. These use HTS 8541.21 (power MOSFETs, TO-247/TO-220 packages) or 8542.39 (gate driver ICs) at Free MFN + 10% Section 122. Philippines-origin power devices face 10% total, versus China-origin power devices at 60%.
onsemi operates multiple Philippine facilities for packaging small-signal transistors, MOSFETs, and analog ICs. These include Carmona, General Trias, and Santa Rosa operations. Small-signal BJTs use HTS 8541.21.0090 at Free MFN + 10%. onsemi Philippines products span power management, motor drivers, and sensing ICs.
The Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga province offers tax-free importation of materials used in manufacturing — a key advantage for semiconductor assembly where silicon wafers from Taiwan or Japan enter and are packaged for re-export to the US. This structure means the country of origin for US customs is the Philippines (where substantial transformation occurs), giving buyers access to the 10% Section 122 rate rather than paying 60% for China-packaged equivalents.
Generally yes. When semiconductor wafers from Germany or Taiwan are assembled and tested in the Philippines, substantial transformation has occurred in the Philippines, establishing Philippines country of origin. The resulting product faces only 10% Section 122 duty in the US.
Power MOSFETs (HTS 8541.21) from the Philippines: 0% MFN + 10% Section 122 = 10% total. Same rate applies to small-signal transistors, gate drivers, and other semiconductor packages assembled in the Philippines.
Both Philippines and Vietnam face identical tariff structures in 2026: 0% MFN (for most electronics) + 10% Section 122 = 10% total. The choice between the two for procurement is driven by supplier capabilities, lead times, and component availability rather than tariff differences.
No. The Philippines faces only the 10% Section 122 global surcharge for electronics in 2026. There are no Section 301, Section 232, or other special tariffs on Philippine goods.
