In a significant development for regional trade and economic cooperation, the United States and Cambodia have concluded a new tariff agreement that sets a unified tariff rate of 19% on a range of Cambodian exports to the US effective 1 August 2025. This follows months of negotiations aimed at stabilizing bilateral trade relations and ensuring predictability for exporters and investors alike.
While any increase in tariffs may at first glance raise concerns, this agreement reflects a strategic middle ground—one that offers notable advantages for Cambodia’s economic positioning, particularly amid rising trade protectionism globally.
