Apple Is Moving US iPhone Assembly to India Amid Tariff Turmoil
- Apple announced on May 1, 2025, that it will source most iPhones sold in the US from Indian assembly facilities to reduce reliance on China.
- This shift follows US tariffs up to 145% imposed on Chinese imports under the Trump administration, which have increased Apple's production costs and supply chain risks.
- Apple already moved parts of production to India and Vietnam, with Vietnam set to supply almost all iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and AirPods sold in the US this quarter.
- CEO Tim Cook said the tariffs could add $900 million to costs this quarter, assuming no changes, while Apple expects the majority of US iPhones to be made in India soon.
- The move suggests Apple's broader strategy to diversify manufacturing, mitigate tariff impacts, and sustain supply chain stability amid uncertain China-US trade tensions.
