UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – Trump set a firm August 1, 2025 deadline for tariff payments on dozens of countries, warning no extensions will be granted as part of efforts to reduce the U.S. trade deficit.
- On July 8, 2025, President Donald Trump confirmed that increased tariff payments imposed on goods from various nations will commence on August 1, 2025, with no extensions or delays being allowed.
- This comes after the White House postponed the original July 9 tariff reimposition deadline to August 1 to allow further trade negotiations with partners.
- Formal letters warning 14 countries of new tariffs ranging from 25 to 40 percent were sent starting July 7, and more letters will follow in the coming days.
- Trump stated, “No extensions will be granted,” and indicated tariffs could be modified depending on relationships, while analysts expect tariff rates to stay near current levels.
- The tariff enforcement marks a renewed pressure to close trade gaps, prompting resistance from trading partners and potential retaliatory measures from the European Union.
