By the authority vested in him as President, Donald J. Trump has extended the modification of reciprocal tariff rates, a measure initially outlined in Executive Order 14257. This extension follows the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and other relevant laws.
The original executive order, issued on April 2, 2025, aimed to address large and persistent U.S. goods trade deficits, which were considered a threat to national security and the economy. It imposed additional ad valorem duties on imports to rectify these trade practices.
A subsequent executive order on April 9, 2025, temporarily suspended these additional duties for certain trading partners for 90 days, excluding the People's Republic of China (PRC). This suspension was based on these partners' willingness to address U.S. economic and national security concerns.
President Trump has now decided to extend this suspension until August 1, 2025. The decision was made after receiving recommendations from senior officials regarding ongoing discussions with trading partners. The separate tariff suspension concerning the PRC remains unchanged.
The Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States will be modified accordingly from July 9, 2025. The Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Homeland Security, and United States Trade Representative are tasked with implementing this order in consultation with other key officials.
This order is intended to align with applicable laws and does not create any enforceable rights or benefits against the United States or its entities.
Donald J. Trump
