SEC. 4504. IMPORT TAX IMPOSED AS TARIFF DUTY.

The tax imposed by section 4501(b) shall be levied, assessed, collected, and paid in the same manner as a duty imposed by the Tariff Act of 1930 (46 Stat. 590; 19 U.S.C. chapter 4) and shall be treated for the purposes of all provisions of law relating to the customs revenue as a duty imposed by such act, except that for the purposes of sections 336 and 350 of such act (the so-called flexible tariff and trade agreements provisions; 46 Stat. 701; 48 Stat. 943; 19 U.S.C. 1336, 1351) such tax shall not be considered a duty or import restriction, and except that no preference with respect to such tax shall be accorded any articles imported or brought into the United States.
