#美国对60个经济体加征关税 Trump rolls out a new global tariff framework in the name of opposing “forced labor”
The U.S. Trade Representative’s office said the related tariffs will cover 99.4% of U.S. trade|Caijing special contributor Jin Yan, reporting from Washington|Editor Su Qi
On July 23, the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) issued an announcement saying that, under Section 301 of the 1974 Trade Act, it would impose an additional 10% to 12.5% tariffs on imports from 60 countries and regions in the name of so-called “forced labor,” replacing the global import tariffs scheduled to expire. Earlier this March, the USTR launched investigations into the 60 economies in accordance with President Donald Trump’s instructions, because those countries had failed to enact and effectively enforce relevant rules prohibiting the import of goods produced through forced labor.
The Trump administration is continuing its aggressive trade protectionist line. It proposed a 12.5% tariff on imports from countries including 🇨🇳, Brazil, South Korea, Switzerland, and the UK, while goods from the EU, Canada, and Mexico would face a 10% import tax. The new tariffs take effect on July 24, U.S. Eastern Time. Oil, natural gas, and food are exempted.
Bloomberg Economics Research predicts that the new measures would only raise the U.S. effective tariff rate from 10.7% to 11.2%, but an expansion of sectoral tariffs could trigger knock-on effects. Goods covered by independent national security tariffs—such as steel, aluminum, automobiles, and auto parts—will not be affected by the new tariffs. Certain food and agricultural import products, fertilizers, and energy products will also receive exemptions.
Olu Sonola, head of U.S. economic research at Fitch Ratings, told Caijing that the new tariffs on July 23 are less shocking and more like “just some noise.” This is not a redo of tariff liberation day: forced-labor measures are widely expected, they have not brought any substantively meaningful surprises, and exemptions remain for about one-quarter of imported products. That would keep the effective tariff rate below 10%, largely maintaining the status quo in the near term, with little impact on changing the outlook for growth or inflation. Forced-capacity overhang tariffs may still appear and would be layered on top of the July 23 measures. If their scope is broad enough to push tariff rates back to the level of 2025, uncertainty would rise sharply, and the hit to growth and inflation would be harder to eliminate—especially if energy prices remain elevated over the long run.

Bloomberg Economics Research predicts that the new measures will only raise the U.S. effective tariff rate from 10.7% to 11.2%, but the expansion of industry tariffs could trigger ripple effects.

Certain food and agricultural import products, fertilizer, and energy products will also be exempted.

This would keep the effective tariff rate below 10%, largely maintaining the recent status quo, with little effect on changing the outlook for growth or inflation. Overcapacity tariffs may still appear and would be layered on top of the measures from July 23. If their scope is broad enough to push the tariff rate back to 2025 levels, uncertainty would rise sharply, and the hit to growth and inflation would become harder to remove—especially if energy prices remain high for the long term.
