In an Executive Order (EO) published on July 7, 2025, President Trump announced he was postponing the higher country-specific reciprocal tariffs “based on additional information and recommendations from various senior officials, including information on the status of discussions with trading partners.”
A 90-day suspension of these higher rate reciprocal tariffs was announced on April 9, 2025, in EO 14266 for trading partners listed in Annex I to EO 14257. This suspension was set to expire on July 9, 2025.
This latest update from the White House extends the suspension of these duties until 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on August 1, 2025.
