Note: Coffee prices are not seasonally adjusted. Imports include coffee, whether or not roasted or decaffeinated, husks and skins and coffee substitutes containing coffee in any proportion. The 10% tariff is the universal baseline rate. USMCA-compliant goods from Mexico and Canada are exempted from tariffs. The US has threatened an additional 10% tariff on BRICS countries, which include Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates.
