Trump Extends Reciprocal Tariff Deadline & Strikes New Deals

On July 7, President Trump signed an executive order extending the deadline for reciprocal tariffs to August 1. New rates were assigned in official letters, including 36% for Thailand and Cambodia. More recently, trade deals have been struck with Japan (15%) and Indonesia (19%). Indonesian products that contain a significant amount of content from other countries, particularly China, will face a higher rate of 40%.

These reciprocal tariffs will not apply to the hardwood products awaiting the Section 232 National Security review, expected to be published any day now.
