August 1, 2025

President Trump has implemented new tariffs on imports from more than 90 countries after failing to reach trade agreements by his August 1 deadline. These tariffs, which take effect on August 7 for most countries (with Canada's 35% rate already in effect since August 1), may result in higher prices for American consumers as companies pass on the increased costs. Brazil faces particularly steep 50% tariffs on most goods, while negotiations with China continue until August 12, and Mexico has received a 90-day extension at current tariff rates instead of the threatened 35% increase.

Who is affected

  • Companies importing foreign goods into the United States
  • American consumers who may face higher prices
  • More than 90 countries subject to the new tariffs
  • Brazil, facing one of the highest tariff rates at 50%
  • Canada, with a 35% tariff rate (though most goods are exempt)
  • China, still in negotiations until August 12
  • Mexico, which received a 90-day extension at current rates

What action is being taken

  • The U.S. government is implementing new tariffs on goods from more than 90 countries
  • The tariffs are being applied at different rates for different countries
  • Companies bringing foreign goods into the US are paying these taxes to the government
  • Negotiations with China are continuing until August 12
  • Mexico is receiving a 90-day extension at current tariff rates

Why it matters

  • The tariffs will likely increase costs for American consumers as companies pass on the tax burden
  • Different countries face significantly different tariff rates, with Brazil receiving one of the highest at 50%
  • These tariffs represent a major shift in U.S. trade policy affecting global commerce
  • Some countries have received exemptions or extensions, creating an uneven trade landscape
  • The tariffs will impact the cost and availability of imported goods in the U.S. market
