President Trump’s tariff timeline: What to know

President Trump's first months in office have been filled with drastic economic policies that overturn the norms of international trade agreements with countries including China, Mexico and Canada.

Tariffs from neighboring allies were imposed on Tuesday, prompting each Trump counterpart to introduce mutual measures in the form of a global domino effect.

Here is the complete list of dates, products and taxation proposed by the President:

February 4th

President Trump has imposed a 10% tariff on all imports from China, including medicine, metals and machinery.

The move follows the Biden administration's increased tariffs on electric vehicle imports from Asian countries, which rose from 25% to 100% in May last year.

March 4th

The Trump administration enacted previously delayed tariffs in Canada and Mexico on Tuesday, imposing a 25% collection on all imports from both countries. The enforcement decision was applied after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Claudia Shainbaum agreed to help curb the flow of fentanyl to the United States and block illegal immigration.

Trudeau appointed Emperor Fentanyl on February 11 to earn Trump's approval by helping to dismantle the US opioid crisis.

The president also added a 10% tariff on all imports from China, increasing scouring for designated foreign enemies.

Chinese leaders have pledged to recoup 15% tariffs on imports of chicken, wheat, corn and cotton, and 10% tariffs on imports of sorghum, soybeans, pork, beef, seafood, fruits, vegetables and dairy products on the latest measures from Trump.

March 12th

Trump's second administration is aiming for Revive the policy It was enacted throughout his first term to include a 25% tariff on all steel imports scheduled to be imposed on March 12th. The leader also plans to raise the original 10% tariff on aluminum imports from 2018 to match the 25% duty on iron.

This policy differs from his previous directives, and is imposed on all countries around the world.

Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, the European Union, Ukraine and the UK were once exempt from taxes on steel and aluminum imports, but the Trump administration said the exclusion would “prevent tariffs from becoming effective.”

These countries must adhere to the 25% standard on imports.

The Trump administration also investigated tariffs on agricultural products and foreign cars on April 2, but has not announced the rate of trade charges set.

Proposed tariffs

The timber and copper trade agreement is also under review by the president's cabinet members who are accused of submitting a report containing an assessment of the necessary imports related to both goods.

During his initial submission, Trump supports plans to raise the price of wood and copper imports to promote domestic production of wood and copper by-products, as outlined in the President's executive order.
