    Section 301 Tariffs Replace Global 10% Duty Across 60 Countries

    Question

    Section 301 Tariffs Replace Global 10% Duty Across 60 Countries

    Direct answer

    The transition to Section 301 duties marks a strategic shift in trade policy, moving away from broad global measures toward targeted, legally defensible frameworks. This change suggests that the tariff regime is intended to be a long-term fixture of the trade environment. Companies with complex international supply chains, particularly in consumer discretionary and industrial sectors, must now account for these higher, more durable costs in their 2027 projections.
