According to President Trump, “Tariff is the most beautiful word in the dictionary.” Throughout his presidential campaign, Trump promised to use tariffs as a central part of his foreign policy strategy. His America First Trade Policy memorandum also directs the administration to review various tariff- and tariff-adjacent levers the United States could use to further its new trade policy.

Reed Smith’s International Trade and National Security team tracks the latest threatened and implemented U.S. tariffs, as well as counter-tariffs from other countries around the world.

Country-specific tariffs

🔔 Updated: October 10, 2025 at 5:45 PM ET

Litigation update (Sept. 9, 2025): On August 29, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (1) affirmed the Court of International Trade’s (CIT) holding that “fentanyl” and reciprocal tariffs exceed the President’s authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act; (2) affirmed the CIT’s grant of declaratory relief that the “fentanyl” and reciprocal tariff executive orders are “invalid as contrary to law; and (3) vacated the CIT’s permanent injunction that universally enjoined the tariffs’ enforcement, remanding for the CIT to further evaluate the propriety and scope of injunctive relief in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Trump v. CASA, Inc., 145 S. Ct. 2540 (2025). The Federal Circuit stayed its ruling pending further appeal by the government. The Supreme Court will hear oral argument in the pending appeal on November 5.
