 Listeners, welcome to another edition of Mexico Tariff News and Tracker. Today is July 4th, 2025, and the tariff landscape between the United States and Mexico has seen some of the most significant actions in recent years, spearheaded by President Trump’s administration.

In early 2025, President Trump signed executive orders that sent shockwaves through global trade. According to White & Case and official U.S. government statements, as of February 4th, a new 25 percent ad valorem tariff was imposed on all imports from Mexico. These tariffs apply across the board, regardless of sector, with almost no exceptions for products intended for consumption in the United States. Notably, only goods already in transit before the executive orders took effect were exempt from the new duties. Mexican products that used to enjoy duty-free status under previous agreements, such as the USMCA, are now subject to the full 25 percent unless they meet very strict origin requirements under the agreement.

In March, further action came under Executive Order 14194 and 14198, which empowered the U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the Department of Homeland Security to implement and enforce these tariffs. This has resulted in the creation of a new Harmonized Tariff Schedule category, specifically for all articles originating in Mexico. Additionally, anti-dumping and countervailing duties, as well as other taxes and fees, remain firmly in place on top of the new 25 percent import rate.

The impact has been immediate. The American Chamber of Commerce in Mexico reports that both large manufacturers and small businesses are now grappling with the steep increase in import costs for everything from auto parts to agricultural products. Alvarez & Marsal’s analysis highlights that the auto industry has been hit especially hard, with a 25 percent tariff now covering passenger vehicles, light trucks, and critical auto parts like engines and transmissions coming from Mexico.

President Trump’s team frames these moves as “reciprocal tariffs,” arguing that they are intended to counter what they describe as long-standing unfair trade practices by other countries. FactCheck.org points out that Trump has promised a “minimum baseline tariff of 10 percent” on all imports, but for Mexico, the tariff is 25 percent, reflecting what the administration calls a strategy to address border and trade issues directly with the country.

As of today, there is no clear end date for these tariffs. The administration has openly stated that the measures will remain in place indefinitely, and President Trump has reserved the right to increase them further if Mexico retaliates with its own trade barriers or tariffs.

Listeners, the upcoming months will be critical as both sides adjust to this new reality. Businesses, especially those in the cross-border supply chain, must keep a close eye on developments.
