The U.S. will collect duties of between 10% and 12.5% on imports from most major trading partners, its biggest move yet to reconstruct President Donald Trump’s tariff wall that was pierced by the Supreme Court.

The new levies follow an investigation into the alleged failure of around 60 economies to prevent forced labor in their supply chains to the detriment of American workers. Goods from some 10 trading partners deemed to have adopted forced-labor restrictions will be subject to 10% tariffs, including Mexico, the U.K., Canada and India.

Duties on items from the European Union and Taiwan will be at least 10% and products from Japan, Switzerland and South Korea will be taxed at at least 12.5% in a way that complies with the trade agreements they reached with the U.S., according to a Federal Register notice published Thursday. Products from dozens of others will face a 12.5% charge.
