Trump declared the “national state of emergency,” he introduced customs for all countries and additional for “worst offenders”.
He proclaimed the “national state of emergency” due to the trade deficit, for which the White House states that it is a threat to the economic security of the United States.
As the White House explained, the Trump plan includes two types of customs:
- Basic Customs of 10% on all imports from all countries in the world, which enters into force 5. April at 00:01 per US time
- Special reciprocal customs for countries marked as “worst offenders”, and their height will be half of what these countries charge for the US; These customs come into force on the 9th April at 00:01
The White House also explains that Canada and Mexico will remain under the existing customs regime, based on the matters of fentanil and migration. When these regimes are abolished or suspended, new customs from this package will apply to them.
During the address in the White House, Trump raised a chart with the list of countries and the customs rates that these countries imitate the United States and the footsteps that the United States will introduce in return. He said that these measures would “help in the renewal of the American economy”.
How can be seen on the publication from the White House, the goods that are from Bosnia and Herzegovina Imports in the United States will now be customsized in the amount of 35%, while BiH has a customs of 70% on American goods.

The list also includes other countries in the region.
The chart arises that Serbia charges the US 74% customs. Accordingly, the United States introduces Serbia from 37%.
Goods from Montenegro which imports in the US now have a 10% customs duty while identical customs will be imposed on goods from Kosovo.
Recall, Trump imposed a duty of 34 percent on the goods from China, of 20 percent on the goods from the European Union, from 46 percent to Vietnam’s goods …
