Japan Responds to New U.S. Tariffs with Broad Measures to Support Affected Industries

in Trade Policies

Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba addressed the nation on April 1, 2025, referring to the recent U.S. tariffs as a “national crisis” and outlining the government’s response to mitigate the impact on Japan’s economy. Ishiba stated, “We must call this a national crisis,” and emphasized the government’s commitment to supporting affected industries by involving the entire country in the response.

On April 2, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump announced new tariffs on a wide range of goods, including a 24% levy on imports from Japan. While Japan had previously faced 25% tariffs on autos and auto parts, these new duties did not extend to the automotive sector. The announcement has left Japan’s government seeking ways to support industries impacted by the new tariffs.

In response, the Japanese government has taken a series of steps aimed at minimizing the negative effects of the tariffs. Prime Minister Ishiba assured that the government would remain diplomatic while working to adjust to the changing trade environment. The Japanese Trade Ministry has formed a task force to coordinate efforts, and consultation desks have been set up across the country to assist exporters. Ishiba also mentioned that vice ministers would visit regions most affected by the tariffs, including areas with a significant concentration of the auto industry.

The government is considering the introduction of a supplementary budget to assist domestic industries, with reports suggesting that financial support for smaller businesses may be expanded. Measures include relaxing requirements for public loans and subsidies to address cash flow challenges and providing support to auto parts suppliers. Japan’s state-owned Nippon Export and Investment Insurance may offer insurance for loans to overseas subsidiaries of Japanese companies impacted by the tariffs.

In addition to the government’s actions, political parties across Japan are exploring responses to the new tariffs. While some leaders are calling for direct negotiations with the United States to seek an exemption, others advocate for retaliatory measures or actions through the World Trade Organization. The ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is engaged in ongoing discussions with industry representatives, particularly from the automotive sector, to ensure the government’s response is effective.

The Japanese government’s efforts to address the tariffs reflect the country’s commitment to supporting industries and workers impacted by the new trade measures.
