 Listeners, welcome to another episode of Mexico Tariff News and Tracker. If you’ve been following the headlines, the United States–Mexico trade relationship has entered a new and turbulent phase in 2025, with significant tariff changes that are already impacting cross-border commerce.

Back in March, U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the Department of Homeland Security moved forward with new tariffs on products from Mexico. These were implemented following Executive Orders 14194 and 14198, which the White House framed as necessary to address southern border issues. Effective March 4, 2025, nearly all products imported from Mexico are now subject to a 25 percent ad valorem tariff, regardless of whether they were previously covered under tariff reduction programs or existing exemptions. This blanket rate is set under the newly modified Harmonized Tariff Schedule, and applies even to goods previously benefiting from the USMCA—the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement—unless strict origin requirements are met. This means only products fully compliant with USMCA origin rules continue to enter the U.S. duty-free, creating a sharp divide in how Mexican exports are treated.

Auto imports from Mexico, a major export sector, initially received a temporary exemption, but that expired in April. Now, passenger vehicles, light trucks, and critical auto parts from Mexico face the 25 percent tariff as well, leading to immediate disruption in North American automotive supply chains. Sectors beyond autos, including agriculture, electronics, and consumer goods, are feeling the pressure as well, with importers facing significantly higher costs.

Adding to this, President Trump announced a global tariff in early April: a 10 percent ad valorem duty on all imports into the United States, though USMCA-compliant goods from Mexico and Canada remain exempt from this global tariff. However, if Mexican products do not meet USMCA requirements, they remain subject to the harsher 25 percent tariff imposed in March.

U.S. tariff revenue has soared to record levels as a result, with the Treasury Department reporting $22.2 billion collected in May 2025, up 42 percent from April, which itself had already seen a 90 percent jump from March. Officials credit the new tariffs on Mexico and other key trading partners as the primary drivers of this surge.

Legal challenges are in motion, with at least five court cases contesting the president’s emergency tariff authority. But for now, these tariffs remain in place and are reshaping U.S.–Mexico trade relationships, while fueling debates about their long-term impact on the U.S. economy, supply chains, and prices for American consumers.
