President Donald Trump’s new set of adjusted tariffs on goods shipped from dozens of countries and the European Union took effect Thursday.

The new tariffs range from 10% to 50%.

Brazil is facing the stiffest import taxes. In addition to a 10% reciprocal tariff, Trump announced a separate 40% tariff in response to Brazil’s prosecution of its former president, Jair Bolsonaro, over allegations that he tried to orchestrate a coup to remain in office following his 2022 election defeat.

Brazilian officials have estimated that nearly half of its imports will be exempt from the tariff related to Bolsonaro’s prosecution.

A 25% tariff on many Indian imports took effect just after midnight Wednesday. Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to place an additional 25% tariff on India for buying Russian oil, with a goal of depleting revenues that Russia could use to fund its war against Ukraine. The additional tariffs would take effect late this month.

Here’s a look at the new set of tariffs, according to the White House:

Afghanistan, 15%. Algeria, 30%. Angola, 15%. Bangladesh, 20%. Bolivia, 15%. Bosnia and Herzegovina, 30%. Botswana, 15%. Brazil, 50%. Brunei, 25%. Cambodia, 19%. Cameroon, 15%. Chad, 15%.
