Forvis Mazars has an expert team capable of assessing the potential impact of these tariffs on imports to the US, as well as the retaliatory measures to be imposed by each involved country. If you need support conducting an analysis on specific products or cases, please reach out to the corresponding Forvis Mazars expert.
