A college research project tracking bilateral tariff rates across 19 major economies, with five years of geopolitical context — sourced from WTO, World Bank, and Global Trade Alert.
"A single tariff line can wipe out three years of manufacturing margin. I built this so that connection is visible to everyone."
I grew up watching bilateral tariff decisions reshape manufacturing supply chains in real time. When Section 301 tariffs hit Chinese-made textiles, orders redirected to India within weeks. When Liberation Day tariffs struck in April 2025, entire sourcing models had to be rebuilt overnight.
Most people encounter tariffs as a number on a customs form. I see them as decisions that determine whether an artisan in Panipat gets a pay rise or loses their order. This tracker is my attempt to make that analysis accessible — with real data, historical context, and AI-powered strategy.
Key events that changed bilateral tariff rates — sourced from WTO dispute records and Global Trade Alert monitoring database.

Ask questions grounded in the 19-economy dataset and geopolitical events. Sourced from WTO, USTR, and globaltradealert.org data.
All figures are ad-valorem percentages on the import side. Figures reflect MFN and applied rates for 2025-2026.
Coverage. The tracker covers 19 of the world's largest economies by GDP, with bilateral tariff data for every pair (342 total).
Categories. Three tariff categories: overall average applied rate, agricultural products rate, and manufactured products rate.
Reading the data. Each value is the tariff the importing country applies to goods from the exporting country. EU member states share the Common External Tariff (0% intra-EU).
Geopolitical events are sourced from Global Trade Alert (globaltradealert.org), WTO dispute settlement records, and official USTR announcements.
