AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoDrone Tariffs Hit Sensitive Tech: President Trump signed a Section 232 order imposing up to 100% duties on imported drones and key parts deemed “particularly sensitive” for national security—covering drones over 25 kg, thermal-imaging systems, docking stations, and certain critical components—while smaller drones face 25%. Liechtenstein in the Lower Band: Qualifying imports from the EU, Japan, Liechtenstein, South Korea, Switzerland, and Taiwan are capped at 15% (UK at 10%), but only if substantially all critical hardware, software, and technology originate in the listed partner economies and/or the US. Supply-Chain Pressure: The White House says the move targets foreign reliance (especially China) and aims to force onshoring via a Commerce-led incentive program; tariffs start in about 21 days, with less-sensitive component duties later. Local Industry Angle: For Liechtenstein-linked suppliers, the key question is whether products can meet the origin and technology rules to stay in the 15% bracket.
