Countries that have not signed a trade agreement with President Donald Trump will face strict tariffs as announced on April 2, effective from August 1.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that these countries will receive warning letters and face previous tariff levels if they do not reach a timely agreement.
- Tariffs will be reapplied from August 1 for countries that have not signed agreements.
- Warning letters will be sent to trade partners this week.
- The 90-day tariff suspension period ends on August 2, with no new extension.
Will Trump Really Reimpose Tariffs from August 1?
Scott Bessent confirmed the plan to send warning letters affirming that previous tariff levels will be applied from August 1 if partners do not reach an agreement. This is not a mere warning but an official decision based on the Trump administration's policy.
During the CNN State of the Union program on July 6, Scott Bessent clearly stated: "If partners do not accelerate the agreement, they will face tariff levels from August 1." This decision demonstrates the seriousness of the United States' trade policy.

Donald Trump, President of the United States, 5/7/2025
