President Trump’s recent tariff policy is creating significant challenges for importers. While a temporary tariff delay is in place until April 2, 2025, only goods compliant with the USMCA free trade agreement qualify for exemption from the 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada.
Currently, just 50% of Mexican imports and 38% of Canadian imports meet USMCA compliance, leaving many companies exposed to significant additional costs.
