New US tariff scheme expands Argentine zero-duty lines to 2,212
To the 1,675 lines already covered by the Reciprocal Trade and Investment Agreement (ARTI), signed on February 5 in Washington, another 537 were added following a review by the Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR). Argentina was also placed in the lowest band of the new regime, with an additional 10% tariff, the same rate that previously applied. Under the criteria published by the USTR, that rate applies to economies that already ban the import of goods produced with forced labor, committed to doing so through a reciprocal trade agreement, or apply a partial regime with that effect.
