Welcome to Brazil Tariff News and Tracker, your source for the latest developments on tariffs, trade policy, and the evolving relationship between the United States, President Trump, and Brazil.

The big headline for Brazilian exporters in 2025 centers on the Trump administration’s sweeping tariff changes. On April 2nd, the U.S. government imposed an additional 10% tariff on all Brazilian exports to the American market. The Brazilian government has been vocal in its criticism, calling these measures a violation of World Trade Organization commitments and warning that the decision will hit all Brazilian goods exports to the United States. In response, Brazilian officials are now considering taking the dispute to the WTO and are weighing possible reciprocal measures, including a new Economic Reciprocity Bill currently under review by the Chamber of Deputies, as reported by Brazil’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The new blanket 10% tariff, effective since April, is part of a broader shift under Trump’s “America First” trade strategy, which replaced country-specific reciprocal rates with a simple 10% flat tariff on imports from nearly all countries, including Brazil, according to the latest data compiled by trade policy analysts like Passport Global.

Beyond the blanket tariff, certain Brazilian industries have been hit even harder. The Trump administration raised the Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum from 25% to 50%, effective June 4th. These tariffs are intended to bolster U.S. national security and protect American industries, but they pose major challenges for Brazilian companies, as steel and aluminum products made up nearly $7 billion of Brazilian exports to the U.S. in 2024 alone. Automotive products are also affected by a 25% tariff, compounding the pressure on Brazil’s industrial sectors, as detailed by Brazil’s Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade, and Services.

Despite the new U.S. tariffs, trade between Brazil and the U.S. reached a record $20 billion in the first quarter of 2025, buoyed by rising Brazilian industrial exports and a 15% surge in U.S. goods flowing into Brazil. Yet, experts like Abrão Neto of AMCHAM Brasil emphasize that Brazilian companies now face increased uncertainty and new costs, and warn that “Brazil needs to act sooner rather than later to ensure our exports continue to access the U.S. market under favorable conditions.” Neto also urges Brazilian authorities to seek exemptions and reduce surcharges, while using the current moment to deepen trade ties with other global partners.

Brazil’s government remains open to negotiation with Washington, but is preparing to defend national interests at every level, including potential cases before the WTO.
