This memorandum directs the United States Trade Representative to impose a 25 percent tariff on all goods of Brazil, following a Section 301 investigation initiated on July 15, 2025, into Brazil's acts, policies, and practices related to digital trade and electronic payment services, preferential tariffs, anti-corruption enforcement, intellectual property protection, ethanol market access, and illegal deforestation. The Trade Representative determined on June 1, 2026, that certain of these practices are actionable under Section 301(b)(1), and consultations with Brazil failed to resolve U.S. concerns. Products identified in the Annex are exempted from the tariff, including raw materials whose taxation could lead to unavailability of domestic supply and products that cannot be produced in sufficient quantities in the United States, and the Trade Representative is directed to modify the Harmonized Tariff Schedule accordingly.
