U.S. to Impose 19% Tariff on Indonesian Goods in Lopsided Trade Deal

HeadlineJul 17, 2025

The U.S. and Indonesia announced a new trade deal Wednesday that would see Trump’s threatened tariff of 32% reduced to 19%. The U.S. will not pay any tariffs for its exports to Indonesia. Indonesia’s President Prabowo Subianto also said he’d agreed to purchase Boeing jets. Trump told reporters Wednesday he will soon announce a blanket tariff for 150 other countries, saying the rate will be “probably 10 or 15%,” adding, “We haven’t decided yet.”
