U.S. President Donald Trump has released a new round of tariff letters targeting 12 countries, warning of sharp trade penalties set to take effect from 1 August.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said he had sent the letters to Malaysia, Kazakhstan, Tunisia, South Africa, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Serbia, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and Myanmar.
This follows similar announcements made earlier this month regarding Japan and South Korea.
The letters outlined specific tariff rates that will apply to each country’s exports to the United States starting next month. Trump also warned that any retaliatory action could lead to even higher tariffs.

Trump also reiterated that all goods imported from Japan and South Korea will face an additional 25% duty—separate from existing sector-specific tariffs—starting on 1 August.
