A new U.S. tariff approach is creating a near-term lift for Brazil’s Embraer and for U.S. airlines that rely on its regional jets. While a temporary global import duty is being rolled out under Section 122, commercial aircraft, engines, and key aerospace parts have been carved out—removing a cost burden that had weighed on Embraer orders and deliveries.
The exemption helps level the playing field against competing business jets that already entered the U.S. duty-free, and it may reduce pricing pressure for carriers planning additional E175 arrivals. Airlines have also signaled they’re watching the tariff landscape closely as delivery timelines approach.
Even with the relief, the industry isn’t calling it settled. Trade investigations and ongoing tariffs on inputs like steel and aluminum could still raise costs across the aerospace supply chain, keeping uncertainty in the background for manufacturers and airlines alike.
