President Donald Trump imposed a 25% tariff on certain advanced computing chips.

Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Nvidia H200 and AMD MI325X advanced computing chips.

KEY POINTS
President Donald Trump on Wednesday imposed a 25% tariff on certain advanced computing chips, such as the ‍Nvidia H200 AI processor ‍and a similar semiconductor from AMD called the MI325X, according to ⁠a fact sheet released by the White House. The proclamation cited national ​security concerns for the tariffs, and is part of a broader effort to ‍create incentives for chipmakers to produce more semiconductors ⁠in the U.S. and decrease reliance on chip manufacturers in places such as Taiwan. The tariff will not apply to ⁠chips imported for ​U.S. data centers, ⁠startups, non-data center consumer applications, non-data center ‍civil industrial applications and U.S. public sector applications. Trump, in ‌the near future, might also impose broader tariffs on imports of semiconductors ⁠and ​their derivative products ‍to incentivize domestic manufacturing, according to the fact sheet.
