changes to US imports
On January 14, 2025, the United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency announced a proposal for sweeping changes to US imports.
The rationale for these changes outlined is rooted in consumer safety, border security, protecting our domestic industry and increasing revenue.
Proposed changes of note: all imports will require 10 digit HS codes, new tariffs for high volume HS codes of 12-30% and the de minimus for low value shipments may be eliminated for certain products.
2025 Mexico tariff changes
New tariffs for specifically scoped commodities – namely finished and semi-finished apparel products.
The “IMMEX program” (the Fomento de la Industria Manufacturera, Maquiladora y de Servicios de Exportación) was amended to exclude certain commodities.
All apparel imports into Mexico are still allowed – they now just carry increased tariffs and are no longer eligible for the IMMEX program. No products have been banned from import into Mexico.
