Aerospace products appear exempt from Trump’s new 15% tariffs

The Trump administration's revised 15% tariff regime will exclude aircraft, engines and components, removing aerospace products from the latest duties the White House introduced after the US Supreme Court struck down the president's earlier emergency tariff authority on 20 February.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • The administration's revised 15% tariff list explicitly excludes aircraft, engines and components, meaning those products will not incur the new duties.

  • This decision follows the US Supreme Court ruling that struck down the president's emergency-tariff authority on Feb 20 and forced the administration to pursue alternative legal routes (Supreme Court ruling).

  • The carve-out reduces immediate tariff risk to OEMs, MROs and global supply chains and sits alongside other recent trade activity capping tariffs at 15% that explicitly included aviation products (US-Taiwan trade deal).
