We review the developments from last week with a SPECIAL REPORT, as regards, tariffs against Mexico and Canada in a special report including the retaliation measures by Canada and Mexico – not forgetting the 20% on China and its retaliation measures. We have a detailed blog for you and you can download all the relevant documents to understand what is actually going on and how to comply:
Looking to this week: Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum imports are scheduled to take effect from this Wednesday, eliminating previous exemptions for Canada, Mexico, and the EU amongst others. This will trigger a multitude of retaliation measures – almost instantly. We have another SPECIAL REPORT with two blog entries, the top 20 questions answered and possible EU responses.
We also updated our Tariff and Trade Threats Log provides a regularly updated timeline of all Trump Tariff developments to help you make sense.
Don’t forget all the other news:
The U.S. continues its investigations into antidumping and countervailing duties on various goods, such as MDI from China, disposable aluminum containers from China, hexamine from China and India, and rulings on mattresses from Indonesia and multilayered wood flooring from China, with numerous final determinations and ongoing reviews. Details in The Customs Watch USA.
Did you see the Textile Classification on Certain Women’s Pants? CBP has been cutting the duty rate on certain women's pants by over 75%. Details in the Customs Watch and this blog.
Plus, US CBP officials have told traders to make sure they are compliant under the False Claims Act (FCA), so we look at what this means.
