UK: Gov't Expects Deal w/US On Car & Aerospace Tariffs In Force By End-June

Jun-18 11:42

Reuters reports that the UK gov't expects tariff arrangements with the US on cars and aerospace to come into force by the end of the month. This follows the signing of an order by US President Donald Trump and British PM Sir Keir Starmer at the G7 summit in Canada. The order will bring into force the agreement reached between the two last month, and see a reduction in tariffs for UK cars being exported to the US. The deal includes the 10% baseline tariff on almost all UK goods (including cars, down from 27.5%), but did not include any reduction in tariffs on steel (a move that was expected). A deal on steel is required by 9 July if the UK is not to see its tariff rate increase from 25% to 50% in line with other countries. 

  • As the BBC reports, "Ministers have hailed the US deal alongside trade deals with the European Union and India. But the US agreement is much more limited than the full-fat trade deal that has long been discussed on Downing Street. The scope of what was signed on Monday also appeared more restricted than the general terms of the deal as outlined last month. Trump has previously declared the pact on tariffs is a "major trade deal", but it is not. The US president does not have the authority to sign free-trade agreements without the approval of Congress."
