The Trump administration has recently updated its tariff guidelines to exclude smartphones, computers, and key electronic components from import tariffs, even those made in China. This new exemption from tariffs includes laptops, hard drives, as well as machinery essential for semiconductor manufacturing. This decision follows Trump's announcement of a temporary 90-day pause on higher tariffs for most countries while increasing rates specifically for Chinese imports. Companies are adjusting swiftly to these changes, with some, like Nintendo, pausing pre-orders, while others, such as Apple, have expedited imports from India to avoid potential tariff impacts.
The Trump administration's updated tariff guidelines now exempt smartphones, laptops, and various electronics from tariffs, a move to mitigate impacts on consumers and tech companies.
US Customs and Border Protection has also included machines used for semiconductor manufacturing under the exemption, which highlights the administration’s focus on technology.
