What the U.S.-Vietnam trade deal tells us about the future of tariffs Published Thu, Jul 3 20256:55 AM ED cnbc.com U.S. lifts chip software curbs on China in sign of trade truce Published Wed, Jul 2 202510:28 PM EDT Under the agreement, the U.S. will apply a 20% duty on Vietnamese imports — sharply below the 46% rate Trump had imposed in early April. U.S. imports to Vietnam will meanwhile not be subject to tariffs. Trump also said that Vietnam had agreed to a 40% duty on any products that originally came from another country, but were sent to Vietnam for final shipment to the U.S. China has reportedly repeatedly relied on this practice, known as transshipping, to avoid trade barriers. Vietnam is one of the few countries that has struck a trade deal with the White House, while the clock ticks down on Trump’s 90-day temporary reprieve. Many nations have been left wondering how the future of their trade relationship with the world’s largest economy could shape up. “What we learned from the Vietnam deal is, if anything, the tariffs are going to go up from here, not down,” Sebastian Raedler, head of European equity strategy at BofA, told CNBC’s “Europe Early Edition” on Thursday. cnbc.com
