2025 Updates:

As the new year approaches, Descartes is working to prepare as much 2025 data as early as possible.  

The following countries are complete for 2025, with deliveries of specific formats pending or already done:

                  CA – Canada 2025 Import Tariff

                  CA – Canada 2025 Export Tariff

                  EU – Combined Nomenclature 2025  ( Export Tariff )

DE – Combined Nomenclature 2025  ( Export Tariff )

HK – Hong Kong Import/Export tariff 2025

ZA – South Africa Customs Union ( ZA, LS, BW, LS, NA ) 2025 Import tariff

These countries are in progress:

NZ – New Zealand Import Tariff 2025

TT – Trinidad and Tobago 2022 Import Tariff

EU – European Union Import Tariff 2025

GB – United Kingdom Import and Export Tariff 2025.  I do not expect to get all of GB before Jan 1.  They are not reliable with providing all the required information ahead of time, especially the required UOMs.  ( Currently the only thing preventing Export tariff is missing new UOMs)

PK – Pakistan 2024-2025 Tariff Update.

We expect to get the US tariff in the last days of 2024 – but not much before Jan 1.  This is typical for the US.

It is impossible to predict exact dates, but in the first 10 days of January it will be very likely the following countries will be updated:

Switzerland

Norway

China ( Import and Export.  Additional data (Declaration elements) might need a few extra days/time.

Brazil

Chile

US Schedule B

South Korea

Saudia Arabia

Colombia

El Salvador

Taiwan

México

Panamá

Just because a country isn’t on that list doesn’t mean it may not be updated.  I used previous years to help try to predict what might get updated.

We will continue to update this list as we progress, and the best way to stay informed is to make sure you are subscribed to the industry updates which go out every Friday.
