The United States of America (USA) has announced that it will impose an additional 10% tariff on top of existing US duties, fees and taxes on imports from the United Kingdom (UK). This will come into effect on 5 April at 00:01 EST.
The UK Government would like to hear from businesses to understand potential responses to these new tariffs. The Business Growth Service team, working with the Growth Hub Network, is reaching out to businesses across the country to encourage them to participate in the open consultation.
Worcestershire businesses can find out more information and share their views and concerns via the UK Government website here. The deadline for feedback is the 2 May 2025.
