Date 07/08/2025

Bilateral U.S. trade agreements concluded in mid-July 2025 with reciprocal tariffs finalized at 19 percent for Indonesia and 20 percent for Vietnam have established a major regional benchmark. This development has led to consensus among analysts that Thailand will likely secure similar terms and conditions in its tariff negotiation with the U.S. and that such an agreement will particularly benefit industries with high foreign revenue exposure.
