As tariffs on China prompted Apple to shift production of iPads and AirPods to Vietnam and iPhones to India, Trump's return to power threatens to reverse these gains. Recent announcements of steep tariffs—46% on Vietnam and 26% on India—could add significant pressure on Apple's operations, which already contend with high tariffs on Chinese goods. With trade officials factoring in various tariffs, currency manipulation, and trade barriers, experts suggest these tariffs serve as a starting point for negotiations, raising concerns about Apple's manufacturing viability as U.S. trade dynamics shift under the new policy.
President Trump’s new tariffs on India and Vietnam could pressure Apple’s business as it has already faced 20% tariffs from China for iPhone products.
Trump's return to the White House has initiated 46% tariffs on Vietnam and 26% on India, adding strain to Apple's manufacturing strategy.
The increase in tariffs is part of Trump's broader strategy to reshape global trade and target countries that impose fees on U.S. exports.
Experts believe Trump’s tariffs are initial proposals meant to negotiate lower overseas tariffs, yet they could still significantly impact Apple’s production costs.
