Taiwan says it has reached 'broad consensus' with US on tariff talks

The U.S. may cut tariffs on Taiwanese goods to 15% if TSMC builds at least five new chip fabs in Arizona, adding to $165 billion in planned U.S. investments.

  • The Trump administration is nearing a trade deal with Taiwan that would lower tariffs on Taiwanese exports to 15% from 20%.
  • Under the proposed deal, the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. would commit to building five new chip plants in Arizona.
  • The deal could be announced this month but its timing and benefits remain uncertain as the Supreme Court may rule on Trump's global tariffs by January 14th.
