Key Facts
—Looming tariff date A 25% U.S. tariff on most Brazilian imports is set to take effect on July 22, 2026, immediately raising costs for exporters and investors in key sectors.
—Possible stacked duties A separate U.S. probe could add a further 12.5% duty, pushing the total tariff to 37.5% on affected products and sharply reducing Brazilian competitiveness.
—IP retaliation toolkit Brazil’s reciprocity law allows suspension of intellectual property rights, meaning U.S. drug and seed patents could lose protection in the Brazilian market.
