Forced Labor Trade Penalties: New Tariffs on 60 Countries
Scores run from -100 (strongly harmful) to +100 (strongly beneficial) for each group, combining impact, certainty, scope, and duration ratings of 1-5. How impact scoring works
Small businesses that import goods from any of the 60 listed economies, including major suppliers like China, Mexico, Vietnam, and India, will pay new tariffs of 10 to 12.5 percent on most products.

“For goods of all other investigated economies, the Trade Representative shall impose a tariff rate of 12.5 percent.”
