The United States has officially issued a public notice imposing additional 25% tariffs on imports from India, with the new duties set to take effect at 12:01 am (EST) on August 27.

The notice, issued by the Department of Homeland Security through US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), said the tariffs implement President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 14329, signed August 6.

The order directed US agencies to respond to “threats to the United States by the Government of the Russian Federation,” with India being targeted for new duties as part of that policy.

This is a developing story. It will be updated.
