Singapore maintains tariffs on US goods in 2025: report

However, Singapore is vulnerable to a potential 25% US tariff on pharmaceuticals. 

Singapore’s tariffs on US goods—and vice versa—will remain unchanged in 2025, according to a report by Natixis CIB. This means Singapore will neither need to lower its tariffs on US goods nor face higher tariffs from the US.

However, Singapore remains among the most vulnerable to a potential 25% US tariff on pharmaceuticals. At the same time, it stands to benefit from the ongoing reshuffling of global supply chains.

According to Natixis CIB, if Trump moves forward with broader tariff measures, the rest of emerging Asia will be negatively impacted, particularly Vietnam, while China could gain a strategic advantage.

Meanwhile, India and Thailand currently have the highest reciprocal tariff differentials with the US.

Currently, only China is subject to Trump-era tariffs, with an additional 20% tariff on top of already high trade and investment barriers. Other Asian countries remain cautious as further trade measures may be introduced in the coming months.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
