The U.S. Customs and Border Protection is already collecting over $200 million in additional revenue daily, tightening the implementation of the new exciting wave of tariffs during President Donald Trump's 'Day of Liberation' plan.'The Customs and Border Protection has successfully implemented 13 tariff measures during this administration,' said a Customs and Border Protection representative quoted by FOX Business. 'Serving on the front lines of America, the Customs and Border Protection strictly adheres to all laws and presidential directives to ensure our economic sovereignty.'Using the powers granted by the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 and the International Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), the Trump administration is targeting goods from dozens of countries, including China.On April 3, the U.S. imposed a 25% tariff on all passenger vehicles and trucks imported from any country, and on Saturday, a 10% global tariff went into effect under the IEEPA with certain exemptions, according to the Customs and Border Protection.Starting from April 9, 86 countries are facing new reciprocal tariffs ranging from 11% to 50%, with some exceptions, and by May 2, goods from China and Hong Kong valued at up to $800 and sent outside the international postal system will no longer be exempt from tariffs and will be subject to standard duties, the Customs and Border Protection reported.As postal shipments from China and Hong Kong will be taxed at a rate of 30% or $25 per unit starting May, the amount will be much larger starting June 1.The Customs and Border Protection states that they are closely cooperating with other agencies for the implementation of these changes and will notify the trade community through their online messaging system.The agency has already earned billions from previously issued Trump orders.This includes $4.8 billion from the Synthetic Opioids Order with China; $861 million from the Order to Stop the Drug Flow from Canada; over $2 billion from the Trade Order at the southern border; and $1 billion collected under mandatory tariffs on steel and aluminum.'The Customs and Border Protection has a unique opportunity to impose and enforce the President's tariffs,' said a Customs and Border Protection representative. 'We are fully equipped and ready to assess tariff liabilities.' Tariff rates for specific goods can be found in the U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
