Trump’s 10% Global Tariffs Take Effect Amid Legal Turmoil and Trade Tensions The United States has introduced a new 10% global tariff under President Donald Trump, despite earlier indications that the rate would be set higher. The development follows a ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States on Friday, which blocked a range of sweeping import taxes previously imposed by the administration. In response, the president announced that a 10% universal tariff would be applied, later stating that the rate would rise to 15%. However, official documentation confirms that, from Tuesday, the levy has been implemented at 10%, with no formal directive yet issued to increase it.

Join Mitch Perks, Deputy Director of Trade Services at British Chambers of Commerce at Global Britain Trade Expo 2026 for his session: "Navigating Compliance Issues". "This session will explore how businesses can navigate compliance issues within an increasingly complex international trade environment. Drawing on experience from ChamberCustoms and the British Chambers of Commerce, it will provide insight into how customs compliance, audit readiness and effective documentation retention support both regulatory assurance and commercial resilience. The session will examine what HMRC audits typically focus on, where compliance risks most commonly arise, and how weaknesses in processes or record keeping can escalate into wider operational and financial challenges. It will also touch on how emerging requirements, such as the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), are beginning to influence compliance expectations, data requirements and governance decisions for UK traders. Designed for senior leaders, compliance professionals and trade practitioners, the session bridges technical requirements with strategic decision-making. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of how strong governance, informed leadership and proportionate controls help businesses manage risk, respond confidently to audits and maintain sustainable, compliant international trade operations."
