'100% tariff': Trump's new threat for countries mulling a digital services tax
US PresidentDonald Trumpon Friday threatened countries imposing a digital services tax (DST) on American companies with a 100 per cent tariff, saying it will suspend any US trade deal with that nation.
In a post on social media, Trump took aim at European countries that he said are discussing “imminent” implementation of taxes on American companies.
“Numerous European Countries have been discussing the imminent implementation of a Digital Services Tax on American Companies. Some of these Countries are close to actually doing this. Please let this statement serve to represent that any Country that imposes such a Tax will immediately be met with a 100% TARIFF on any and all Goods sent to the United States of America. This TARIFF will supersede Trade Deals made with the Country, whether implemented, signed, or not. Additionally, the 100% TARIFF will be immediately imposed if they proceed,” he wrote on Truth Social.
Trump's new threat is unlikely to impact India as New Delhi ended some of its DST levies in 2024 and 2025. According to the White House, India will fully remove DST under the trade dealcurren…

PresidentDonald Trumpon Friday threatened to impose a "100% TARIFF" on the goods of any country that imposes adigital services taxon U.S. companies.
"This TARIFF will supersede Trade Deals made with the Country, whether implemented, signed, or not," Trump wrote in aTruth Social post.
He added that those tariffs "will be immediately imposed" should countries proceed with their digital-tax plans.
Trump has previously vowed to retaliate against countries that impose digital services taxes, claiming they unfairly target U.S. tech giants. Last year, Trump vowed to cut off all trade talks with Canada over its own proposed version of the tax. Ottawa subsequently scrapped the levy shortly before it was set to come into effect.
Digital services taxes are typically structured to apply only to the world's largest and most established tech companies, likeMeta,AlphabetandAmazon, which are U.S. firms.
More than adozen countrieshave imposed digital services taxes. Trump's Friday afternoon post singled out "Numerous European Countries" that he says are considering imposing the taxes.
