TW finalized a reciprocal trade agreement on February 12, 2026, which confirms a 15% U.S. tariff rate on imports from Taiwan while committing the Taiwanese government to a schedule to lower or eliminate tariffs on nearly all American goods. This policy-driven agreement, announced by the Trump administration and the U.S. Trade Representative's office, also binds Taiwan to large, time-bound purchases of U.S. products from 2025 through 2029. These multi-billion-dollar purchase commitments are expected to provide significant support to U.S. farmers, ranchers, fishermen, workers and manufacturers.
