Dominican Republic Hit With 10% Tariff Today By US

I can confirm IMPOSDOM worked perfectly in POP at least back in 2010-2015. I was sent Christmas cards by my parents in EU and it took a couple of weeks but they arrived perfectly.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada–United_States_softwood_lumber_dispute American perception of unfair only means unfair to them, not to any other country.
I don't know if there is a connection, but I bought some American Greek yogurt this morning and the price and the VAT were higher than the price I paid a week prior.
Whereas actually it's a sales tax on all goods, wherever they come from - even UK made.
It's like ITBIS here in the DR which is levied on all goods except some exempted ones.
True, but the issue that most people do not understand, and the reason why VAT can be construed by some as a rebatable tariff is that it can be given back to the producer making their cost of goods cheaper.
VAT, as I understand them, are added all along the supply chain.
So if an automobile manufacturer in the UK for example buys steel to make a car...they pay a VAT on that steel. When they produce/assemble the car and ship it out of the country the VAT they paid to the steel supplier is rebated back to the auto manufacturer. So while it makes perfect sense to some, to others it looks like a subsidy for exports and unfair competition.
Continuing, if that same car is sold in the UK, the automobile company would have paid a VAT to the steel producer and the end buyer in the UK would also pay a VAT for the finished product. No rebate given to anyone.
It is not hard to understand how that can be and is construed differently.
This same concept applies to the DR (ITBIS all along the supply chain with some exemptions), although I do not believe they have or even need a rebate system for goods exported.

Considering the alternative...
The sky isn't falling, he's simply doing what should have been done decades ago.
I used to travel the world often. When doing so I would always send my mother a post card every time I visited somewhere new. Out of 40 or so different different countries, mailing one from the Dominican Republic (Puerto Plata 2012) was the only card she never recieved.
These countries want low tariffs?
No problem but America expects the same courtsey especially when taking into account how much free taxpayer dollars they have been recieving from US citizens for generations.
