Late on Friday night, President Trump clarified that he did not announce a tariff exemption for iPhones and Macs, and the 20% Fentanyl tariffs will still apply to them with potentially higher tariffs coming soon.
President Trump backtracked on the reciprocal tariffs for 90 days but China still faces a hefty 145% tariff.
Electronics items and semiconductors imported from China will continue to face a 20% Fentanyl tariff and will be subject to a special-focus semiconductor tariff in the near future.
For now, iPhones, Macs, and other electronic devices are safe from the 10% global tariffs in the US, but this may change in the future.
