Listeners, welcome back to Mexico Tariff News and Tracker. It’s September 10, 2025, and the landscape for Mexico-U.S. trade is facing significant new challenges.

The big headline today: Mexico’s Ministry of Finance has officially submitted the 2026 budget proposal, including sweeping new tariffs on over 1,400 imported products, targeting countries without a free trade agreement with Mexico. This move is largely aimed at Asian nations in response to U.S. pressure to present a united front against China, as reported by ABC News. Treasury Secretary Édgar Amador says the tariffs will adhere to World Trade Organization rules, aiming to boost domestic production and consumption, and reduce trade deficits. This comes as Mexico’s ruling party, which holds majorities in both chambers of Congress, is expected to easily pass the budget and its new import tax provisions.

Tensions are high between Mexico and the Trump administration, which earlier this year increased tariffs to 25 percent on Mexican goods not protected under the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement, according to Cryptopolitan. President Trump has made clear these tariffs could expand further, citing persistent concerns over trade imbalances and the flow of goods from China through Mexico.

The average tariff on U.S. imports now stands at around 18 percent, according to Wipfli. This marks a dramatic rise from the 2.4 percent average in previous administrations, with roughly 26 billion dollars in tariffs being collected every month. The Trump administration is also threatening a 17 percent tariff specifically on Mexican fresh tomatoes, a vital sector for Mexico’s agricultural economy.

In December of last year, Mexico began imposing tariffs on products like textiles and ramped up anti-counterfeiting operations, mostly targeting Asian imports. The government has defended these steps as vital to protect national industries from unfair competition, but China, as Mexico’s third-largest export destination, has strongly criticized the measures. A Chinese government spokesman called out what he described as restrictions imposed “under various pretexts and under coercion from others,” referring to U.S. pressure.

Meanwhile, the legal future of these tariffs is in question. The U.S. Supreme Court announced Tuesday that it will fast-track cases challenging President Trump’s authority to impose tariffs via executive orders without Congressional approval. These legal battles will be pivotal, as businesses argue the 2025 tariffs are escalating their costs exponentially and creating “paralyzing uncertainty,” according to SCOTUSblog.

Listeners, this moment is a turning point for the commercial relationship between Mexico and the United States. The rules are changing, and the stakes are huge for both sides of the border.
