President Trump delivered a much expected update to his global tariff regimen on Thursday, just before an August 1 deadline announced last month. Taking into account recently negotiated deals, the White House released updated tariff rates for almost 70 countries, ranging in most cases from 15% up to a stiff 41%. The tariffs will take effect seven days after the Thursday order.

While about 70 countries were listed, the Trump administration plans to keep a baseline tariff of 10% in place for all global traffic, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced. The administration chose to keep the baseline rate at 10% instead of raising it even higher.

More than half of the White House list (39 countries) will face a 15% tariff, including Israel, Japan, South Korea, and many African and South American nations. In many cases, these countries saw their rates reduced from the original “Liberation Day” tariffs announced in April. Japan and South Korea, two major U.S. trading partners, faced a potential 25% tariff rate in July, but both managed to negotiate trade deals before the deadline. South Korea just squeaked in a last-minute score, with Trump announcing a trade deal with the country on Wednesday.

After striking the general outlines of a deal with Trump last week, the 27 members of the European Union will face a 15% tariff on some goods and no tariff on others. The U.K. also negotiated a trade deal, and they will face a 10% tariff.

Receiving a slightly higher tariff rate were a number of countries in southern and southeastern Asia. These countries have become increasingly attractive alternate destinations for companies seeking to relocate factories out of communist China, and U.S. imports from those countries have increased proportionately.

Countries with a 19% tariff include Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand, as well as Pakistan. Indonesia and the Philippines reached trade deals in late July, and the other four nations evidently reached deals at the last minute. Cambodia and Thailand recently agreed to a ceasefire when Trump used a potential trade deal as leverage.

Just behind this group with a 20% tariff rate came Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Vietnam faced one of the highest tariffs under the scheme announced in April, and they managed to negotiate their rate down significantly. The other countries are smaller Asian nations with important export industries.

After this, Brunei, India, Kazakhstan, Moldova, and Tunisia face 25% tariffs (India is by far the largest economy in this group). Algeria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Libya, and South Africa face 30% tariffs (South Africa is the star here). The highest tariff rates go to Serbia (35%), Iraq, (35%), Switzerland (39%), Myanmar (40%), Laos (40%), and Syria (41%).

Notably, southeast Asian nations (who also happen to be the most repressive governments in the region) that did not strike a deal with the U.S. face tariff rates at least twice those of their regional competitors. Other high tariff rates are concentrated in North Africa, southeastern Europe, and the Middle East.

The tariff regime also implemented stiff tariffs against America’s global economic competitors who are part of the BRICS group. India and South Africa ranked near the top of the list. Russia has no tariff rate because it effectively has no trade with the U.S. As the worst offender of fair trade practices, China provoked its own unique trade war, which Trump is dealing with on a different timetable.

As for Brazil, the tariff scheme marked them at a rate of 10%. Meanwhile, however, the Trump administration imposed an additional 40% tariff rate, for a unique rate of 50%, on the South American economic powerhouse, as a punishment for the government’s behavior.

“Members of the Government of Brazil have taken actions that interfere with the economy of the United States, infringe the free expression rights of United States persons, violate human rights, and undermine the interest the United States has in protecting its citizens and companies,” Trump’s executive order stated. “For example, Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes … has authorized politically motivated police raids, arrests, and bank account freezes. He has also authorized the confiscation of passports, jailed individuals without trial for social media posts, opened unprecedented criminal investigations, including into United States citizens for their constitutionally protected speech in the United States.”

Brazil’s left-wing government has implemented a regime of censorship and surveillance, even leaning on social media companies like X to force them to spy on users for the Brazilian government. Trump was also angered by the Brazilian government’s treatment of former President Jair Bolsonaro. Bolsonaro featured as a Trump-like figure in Brazil who overlapped with Trump’s first term in office, and he has now been convicted of crimes by his political opponents.

For countries not named “Brazil,” there remains hope of negotiating a lower tariff rate. Switzerland — likely surprised by an unexpected increase in its tariff rate from April — said it would seek a “negotiated solution” with the U.S., while Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te also said he hoped to reach a lower figure.

In essence, the July 31 tariff rates will take effect, but they may not be final, President Trump said Thursday. In a phone interview with NBC News, he explained that it was “too late” for other countries to avoid the tariff rates, which will take effect next week. However, “it doesn’t mean that somebody doesn’t come along in four weeks and say we can make some kind of a deal.”
