These included duties on <a href="/facts/Steel/aN6qWo4H">steel</a> and <a href="/facts/Aluminium/7wmR8jYE">aluminum</a> imports, as well as tariffs targeting specific countries such as <a href="/facts/China/lTjIXY5p">China</a>, <a href="/facts/Canada/D5P9yqs6">Canada</a>, and <a href="/facts/Mexico/IT5bwhdh">Mexico</a>. The administration had also announced a 25% tariff on imported <a href="/facts/Car/cnhHaaHQ">automobiles</a> and <a href="/facts/List_of_auto_parts/6cX2e2qH">automotive parts</a> scheduled to take effect at midnight on April 3, 2025. These previous measures had already increased the average U.S. tariff rate to approximately 12%, the highest level since <a href="/facts/World_War_II/2efV5L1U">World War II</a> according to <a href="/facts/Deutsche_Bank/7NP7SJ8C">Deutsche Bank Research</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="tariff-announcement">Tariff announcement</h2> <p>In the <a href="/facts/White_House_Rose_Garden/dutWUkRN">White House Rose Garden</a> address on April 2, 2025, Trump declared that April 2 was "Liberation Day," describing the announcement as "one of the most important days in American history" and "our declaration of economic independence." The president unveiled a two-tier tariff structure: a baseline 10% tariff applied universally to imports from all countries with the exception of Canada and Mexico, and additional country-specific "reciprocal" tariffs based on what the administration deemed unfair trade practices by approximately 60 individual nations.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9"><sup>9</sup></a> The 10% baseline tariff would begin at 12:01 a.m. <a href="/facts/Eastern_Time_Zone/jP4S8j1V">EDT</a> on April 5, 2025 (04:01 UTC), while the higher country-specific rates would commence at 12:01 a.m. EDT on April 9, 2025.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10"><sup>10</sup></a> </p><p>Trump declared a national emergency to address what he described as a "large and persistent U.S. trade deficit", enabling him to invoke the <a href="/facts/IEEPA/2nNRCmjv">IEEPA</a> to impose a 10% tariff on all imports to the US, effective April 5, 2025.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11"><sup>11</sup></a> He also announced higher tariffs on approximately 60 countries and territories set to begin April 9.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12"><sup>12</sup></a> The White House confirmed that these tariffs would be applied in addition to existing measures on Chinese imports, resulting in an effective tariff rate of 54% on Chinese goods after April 9, 2025.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13"><sup>13</sup></a> </p><p>The tariffs would apply to more than 100 trading partners.

He stated, "We're going to start being smart, and we're going to start being very wealthy again," claiming the new policy would generate "trillions and trillions of dollars to reduce our <a href="/facts/Taxation_in_the_United_States/Ym3wD9w1">taxes</a> and pay down our <a href="/facts/National_debt_of_the_United_States/0t5zSVGs">national debt</a>."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21"><sup>21</sup></a> He cited a US$1.2 trillion <a href="/facts/Balance_of_trade/0kWmf4Cw">trade deficit</a> from the previous year as evidence of unfair global trading practices.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22"><sup>22</sup></a> </p><p>The president characterized his approach to the tariff implementation as "kind," explaining that the government would only charge other countries half of what <a href="/facts/Second_presidency_of_Donald_Trump/a3CUnzUu">administration</a> calculations suggested he should apply based on the trade practices of the impacted nations. When describing the rates during his speech, Trump displayed a chart showing reciprocal tariff rates for U.S. trading partners.
