Though Trump announced a pause for many the tariffs he introduced on April 9, the White House confirmed with USA TODAY that many still remain in effect, including:
20% tariffs previously imposed on China, now totaling 145% with latest announcements.
A baseline tariff of 10% that took effect April 5 for trading partners targeted in Trump's announcement April 2. Canada, Mexico, Russia, North Korea and others do not have a baseline tariff.
Section 232 tariffs on steel, aluminum and autos remain unchanged.
Sectoral carve-outs in the reciprocal/baseline tariffs as outlined in the initial executive order remain unchanged.
The EU tariff remains at the 10% baseline that took effect April 5. An additional 20% tariff on EU is paused.
Fentanyl tariffs on Canada and Mexico remain unchanged " USMCA trade is tariff-free, non-USMCA trade is tariffed at 25% (except for energy and potash, which is tariffed at 10%).
The baseline 10% did not take effect on Canada and Mexico on April 5, and neither country is getting the 10% baseline now.
A tariff on countries importing Venezuelan oil remains in effect.
