WASHINGTON -- American businesses have flagged Japanese digital regulations and other nontariff barriers as key hurdles to trade as U.S. President Donald Trump prepares to announce reciprocal tariffs on imports April 2.
In addition to the target countries' tariffs, the Trump administration is expected to consider nontariff barriers, tax rates and other policies when determining reciprocal tariff rates. The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative had invited public comment on "unfair" foreign trade practices until March 11.
