In March 2025, President Trump imposed broad new tariffs on Mexico, citing what he called a national emergency related to cross-border drug and migrant flows. These so-called “fentanyl tariffs” were set under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, along with reciprocal tariffs that targeted dozens of other US trading partners. By April, the official US average tariff hit 27 percent—the highest level in over a century—and for Mexican goods, rates on specific categories climbed dramatically. This action reversed years of growing integration under NAFTA and the USMCA, the North American free trade deals built to promote open trade between the US, Mexico, and Canada. The Wall Street Journal warned the measures had “the potential to profoundly reshape relations” between the countries and upend retail and manufacturing supply chains.
According to Wikipedia’s August 2025 update, after several rounds of negotiation and retaliation from Canada and Mexico, the broad tariffs on Mexican imports averaged 18.6 percent as of late August. Mexico initially prepared a strong response but shifted its strategy after intense talks. President Trump temporarily delayed tariffs on USMCA-compliant goods, though only about half of Mexican exports qualified in early 2025. Officials expect near-universal compliance by the end of the year, which should shield most exports from the steepest tariffs.
For many businesses and consumers, the impact is immediate. CEOs of major US retailers have warned that the tariffs, especially those on Mexican autos, electronics, and agricultural products, would drive up prices and trigger product shortages. Already, companies like Walmart and Best Buy have raised prices on affected goods. American auto manufacturers also report trouble sourcing parts, while produce importers signal shortages and price jumps as the tariffs bite deeper.
A pivotal legal twist developed last week. On August 29, a federal appeals court ruled that Trump's sweeping IEEPA tariffs, including those on Mexico, overstepped presidential power. However, the tariffs will remain in place until at least October 14, as the Trump administration appeals to the Supreme Court. Trump insists all tariffs are still in force and essential to his vision of “Making America Rich, Strong, and Powerful Again.” But legal experts and former officials warn this is a direct challenge to Congress’s constitutional authority over taxes and trade policy. If the courts ultimately block these tariffs, the White House may have to issue billions in refunds to importers and rewrite its negotiating strategy with Mexico entirely.
As of now, tens of billions in Mexican goods face higher duties, with the average rate just under 19 percent, and supply chain disruptions are mounting. US-Mexico trade relations have become a global bellwether for the risks of aggressive tariff policy and executive action. Expect more volatility as US courts and political leaders wrestle with the future of trade powers and North American commerce.
