Client updates /  Tariffs

The United States President recently announced the imposition of new 25% to 100% tariffs on pharmaceuticals, heavy-duty trucks, upholstered furniture, and kitchen and bathroom cabinets. The move is rocking markets and is likely to impact shipping costs, the furniture industry, and trade relations with various trading partners. It could also affect Israeli companies in various sectors.

The US Federal Court of Appeals ruled recently that most of the tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump as part of the trade wars are unlawful. However, the court decided that, for the time being, these tariffs will remain in effect. This is a landmark decision with potentially wide-ranging implications for the US and global economies, as well as for the balance of powers within the US federal government.

The purpose of this update is to provide the latest developments on the various tariffs being imposed on exports to the United States. The tariff situation is changing frequently, sometimes on a daily basis. We strive to obtain updated information and to post updated versions.
