In a significant update to international trade policy, Japanese negotiator Ryosei Akazawa announced that the United States is set to lower tariffs on Japanese goods, including automobiles, by September 16. The announcement came via an X post on Tuesday.
The updated tariff rates were established by a U.S. Federal Register document issued on September 9, following President Donald Trump's executive order. This marks a crucial step in implementing the U.S.-Japan trade agreement reached in July.
President Trump's recent order has dispelled existing uncertainties about the timeline for applying the 15% reduced tariffs on Japanese cars, bringing clarity to trade relations between the two nations.
