Almaty, July 8 /Xinhua/ — 95 percent of Kazakhstan's exports to the United States will not be affected by new American duties, the press service of the Ministry of Trade and Integration of Kazakhstan reported on Tuesday.
On Monday, an official announcement was received from US President Donald Trump about the introduction of new customs duties on a number of countries, including Kazakhstan, starting from August 1, 2025.
For products exported from Kazakhstan to the United States, a single rate of 25 percent has been established for the entire volume of deliveries.
"At the same time, the majority of Kazakhstan's exports will continue to be supplied without new duties due to the exemption from the new tariff. This applies to the main raw materials and strategic goods – oil, uranium, silver, ferroalloys, tantalum and titanium. According to estimates, the measures taken will not affect about 95 percent of Kazakhstan's exports to the United States," the ministry reported.
It is noted that as part of the work to maintain a predictable trade regime for Kazakh goods, the government of Kazakhstan has sent the US administration specific proposals and initiatives to improve the conditions of mutual trade. Kazakhstan's goal is to achieve agreed decisions on issues of market access and trade conditions.
"The American side is currently considering Kazakhstan's proposals and will inform about the date of the negotiations. Kazakhstan is preparing for further negotiations with the American side to protect national interests and develop sustainable trade and economic partnership," the ministry added. –0–
