US importers turn to brokers to navigate Trump-era tariffs, at a cost
By Arriana McLymore and Nicholas P. Brown NEW YORK (Reuters) -U.S. importers are increasingly relying on customs brokers to keep up with President Donald Trump's ever-changing trade policies. But booming demand for help in processing foreign goods has made these services more expensive, adding another cost to the tariff burden, industry players told Reuters. Customs brokerages, until recently an anonymous branch of the import ecosystem, handle the paperwork needed to process shipments and calculate tariff bills. Mom-and-pop brokers interviewed by Reuters say they are raising fees, while major logistics firms like Memphis, Tennessee-based FedEx and Germany-based DHL are also adding staff to their customs compliance teams. Market research firms ballpark customs brokering as a roughly $5 billion industry in the United States. Hiring a broker is optional, but the increasing complexities of U.S. tariffs and customs regulations are leading more importers to shell out the cash. Independent brokers like Laredo, Texas-based JD Gonzalez are fielding dozens of questions daily from concerned clients struggling to understand what they may owe to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and whether to go ahead with shipments or hold off. Brokers are also spending more time and labor on customs forms than ever, and have in some cases implemented new IT systems. 'With all the new information we have to process, some of the automation we've used has been thrown out, so there's more work to do,' said JD Gonzalez, who is also president of custom brokerage trade group NCBFAA. The trend is part of a broader wave of corporate efforts to bolster trade compliance operations. Major companies, from Nike to Amazon to Lowe's , had published job postings as of Wednesday for trade and customs professionals. Nike was seeking a 'lead' for trade and customs, who would 'play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our trade compliance framework,' according to the post on Nike's careers website. Amazon, meanwhile, had at least 10 U.S. customs brokerage jobs listed on its careers website. Lowe's had three. Nike, Amazon and Lowe's did not respond to requests for comment. HIGHER FEES Independent brokers often base their fees on the number of codes they must enter to classify the contents of a given shipment. Known as harmonized tariff schedule codes, these line items help border officials distinguish car parts from children's toys, and determine proper tariff rates. Prior to Trump's frenetic tariff policies, fees ranged from around $4 to $7 per code. But Gonzalez said the extra costs brokers have incurred as they ramp up systems to handle the tariff changes have led some to increase fees by $1 to $5 per code. Gonzalez said he has raised fees 'nominally,' while Steve Bozicevic, CEO of A&A Customs Brokers headquartered in Seattle and Vancouver, said his company added $3 per product type being imported into the U.S. because of merchandise facing "tariff stacking," a phrase used when an item faces multiple tariffs. "We raised the rates for the U.S. because of the new and added complexity," Bozicevic said. The company has not raised rates for imports into Canada because there's "no new complexity," he said. United Parcel Service raised brokerage rates in December between $3.75 and $50 per import entry, depending on the country of origin. The move was part of general rate increases and unrelated to changes in tariffs, a UPS spokesperson told Reuters. FedEx's logistics arm increased its base customs brokerage rates by 4% in January, according to a company spokesperson. These bigger logistics companies, which include brokerage services in their broader shipping offerings, are also beefing up staff. DHL has upped headcount on its U.S. customs entry team by 30% since February, according to a spokesperson for the company's DHL Express shipping unit. FedEx had more than 40 open job postings on its customs and trade teams as of Tuesday, mainly based in the U.S., according to its LinkedIn jobs page. UPS had 10 similar U.S. positions open, according to its jobs website. FedEx is "adjusting our network to meet demand" in an evolving tariff landscape, which "includes hiring additional customs brokerage roles," the spokesperson said. UPS declined to comment on the job postings. Historically, tariff changes have been less frequent, say brokers, trade lawyers and other trade professionals, and they have come with weeks of lead time, allowing brokers to prepare for the change and provide logistical feedback to CBP. Compare that to last week's doubling of steel and aluminum tariffs to 50%, which Trump announced abruptly, forcing the U.S. customs department to quickly publish official guidance just hours ahead of a midnight change. "Many brokers clear shipments ahead of time, so then you have to come back and retroactively redo it and fix it," said Miami-based customs broker Ralph De La Rosa, whose company, Imperial Freight Brokers, was founded by his father 54 years ago. Even brokers who have not raised fees said their services have become inherently more expensive as the number of HTS codes has spiked. Importers slowed shipments into the United States after Trump's massive tariff announcement on April 2, after having frontloaded purchases earlier in the year to get ahead of an expected rise in duties. Imports of consumer goods, which include cell phones and other household items, decreased $68.9 billion to $277.9 billion in April from a month before, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. Trump announced additional tariffs on steel and aluminum in June and in May threatened to impose 50% tariffs on the European Union. Adding to the uncertainty, a federal appellate court on Tuesday ruled that sweeping tariffs may remain in effect while appeals proceed, after a trade court ruled that the U.S. president overstepped his executive powers and blocked the duties. The appellate scheduled arguments for July 31.

Trump-Musk fight reveals fragility of relationship between Silicon Valley and White House
The falling out between President Trump and Elon Musk is just the latest reminder that the relationship between the new White House and the titans of technology has turned out to be complicated. The CEO of Tesla (TSLA) was among several big names from Silicon Valley awarded prime seats for the president's Jan. 20 Capitol inauguration, alongside Meta (META) CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Apple (AAPL) CEO Tim Cook, Amazon (AMZN) chair Jeff Bezos, and Google (GOOG) CEO Sundar Pichai. In the five months since, the president has either confronted all of their companies in court or applied pressure on those firms with his own words. Musk and Trump made their break official last week in a series of social media posts that featured insults and threats hurled by both men. The other executives and their companies had already been grappling with a tougher-than-expected stance on their industry. Zuckerberg, for example, was not able to convince Trump to stop an antitrust trial against Meta from going forward this spring. The president has since threatened Cook's Apple with 25% duties on overseas-made iPhones and criticized the iPhone maker's ramped-up production in India. Meanwhile, the company is defending against an antitrust lawsuit led by the Justice Department, filed during President Joe Biden's administration. Trump's Justice Department has also pushed ahead with a Biden-era recommendation for a judge to break up Pichai's Google empire. Trump even called Bezos to complain about Amazon after it was reported that the online retail giant was considering displaying the cost of tariffs next to prices on its site. Trump said Bezos "solved the problem very quickly.' Yet Amazon still faces a lawsuit from Trump's Federal Trade Commission that is due to start in February 2027. The FTC, which brought the case during Biden's term in office, told a judge in the spring that it needed to push the original October 2026 trial date due to Amazon's litigation delays. One of the biggest questions facing the tech world as Trump took office was how aggressive Trump's antitrust enforcers would be following four years of a Biden administration marked by legal fights with many of Silicon Valley's biggest names. By sustaining many of these cases and probes against Big Tech, Trump has parted ways with traditional Republican-style enforcement, legal experts say. "This isn't the Bush administration," Trump's FTC chair Andrew Ferguson told a group of American CEOs this spring in Washington, D.C., referring to one of the weakest US antitrust enforcement periods in modern history. Case Western Reserve University School of Law professor Anat Alon-Beck expects the Trump administration will continue to rein in Big Tech, especially given bipartisan support for the idea that Big Tech currently has too much power. There have been some positive developments for the tech firms too. Big Tech has gained the benefit of a relaxed regulatory environment, especially in the industry of artificial intelligence, making fundraising and complying with securities laws easier. In an executive order titled 'Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence,' the president rescinded Biden's executive order on AI safety and directed federal agencies to remove regulatory obstacles to US global AI dominance. "So they have to take what they can get from the current administration," Alon-Beck said. One tech giant that does have an early win from Trump is Microsoft. President Trump's antitrust cops ended what had become an uphill government effort to unwind Microsoft's (MSFT) $69 billion acquisition of video game maker Activision Blizzard that also began during the Biden administration. The decision came when the FTC voluntarily dropped a lawsuit that Biden's FTC boss, Lina Khan, first filed against the tie-up in December 2022. But Microsoft may not emerge unscathed, either. Bloomberg has reported that Trump officials at the FTC are also broadening a probe into Microsoft and its relationship with AI upstart OpenAI ( The probe was first launched by Khan, a key architect of a new movement seeking to expand the legal theories that can give rise to antitrust claims. In June of last year, multiple news organizations reported that the probe also involved a DOJ investigation into chipmaker Nvidia's (NVDA) competitive conduct. The probe was to address concerns over the company's dominance in the market for microprocessors that power AI. The Trump administration has not indicated it has dropped the investigation. And in April, Nvidia said in a regulatory filing that the president had kept in place Biden's export restrictions on the company's H20 AI chips to China. As for Musk, Trump this past weekend said he had no desire to repair the relationship, which he said was over. He warned there would be 'serious consequences' if Mr. Musk financed candidates to run against Republicans who voted in favor of the president's domestic policy bill. But on Monday, Trump made some conciliatory comments about Musk and Tesla. "I'd have no problem with it," Trump said at a White House event on Monday when asked if he would be willing to speak with Musk. "I'd imagine he wants to speak with me." He added, "I wish him well, very well actually." Wedbush technology analyst Dan Ives wrote in a note on Monday that he doesn't expect Trump and Musk to fully patch their soured relationship but would not be surprised if it improved in the months ahead. At the end of the day, Ives wrote, "Trump needs Musk to stay close to the Republican party and Musk needs Trump for many reasons," including a federal framework for autonomous vehicles.

Natural Gas Boom to Heat Up in Texas
Texas is pumping natural gas out of the ground and exporting it at a record pace. It may only be the start of another energy boom for the Lone Star State because natural gas demand is growing both globally and at home. Texas produced 34.1 billion cu ft daily of natural gas in March, newly released figures from the Texas Oil and Gas Association showed this week. The association forecast that by May, this will have grown to 34.4 billion cu ft daily. More than half of the March total was exported, at 12.5 billion cu ft daily, with the rest being consumed domestically. More natural gas will need to be consumed domestically in the coming years, however, thanks to Big Tech's artificial intelligence ambitions. The topic is as hot as they come: AI data center operators are scrambling to find enough reliable electricity supply for their facilities. Wind and solar can't cut it, so the companies are going the nuclear path or, as it happens, the natural gas path. A senior Amazon executive admitted earlier this year the technology sector will continue needing hydrocarbon energy for a while yet. Meta essentially admitted that talk about buying electricity from wind and solar operators is cheap; reliably powering data centers requires baseload generation that gas and nuclear can generate—and nuclear takes ages to build. Despite the hype around small modular reactors, the world's nuclear energy currently comes from the large sort, and building a large-reactor nuclear facility takes a long time to construct. Gas-fired power plants, on the other hand, can be built rather quickly, which is going to drive natural gas demand further—and so will rising exports.A recent report from an outlet called the Center for Energy & Environmental Analysis found that the number of new natural gas pipelines being built in the United States was surging and that most of these—more than a 100—were export oriented, that is, geared towards feeding natgas to LNG plants. The number was 104 new pipelines, the CEEA said, which will bring online as much as 99 billion cu ft daily in transport capacity. With nine out of the ten biggest among these pipeline projects in Texas and Louisiana, most of the additional production will come from those two states. Some are already warning that natural gas prices are going to surge at home due to the booming exports and the insatiable thirst of data centers. There is only so much gas to go around, and with demand surging, prices will follow, the bullish argument goes. But there is a bearish argument as well. Natural gas reserves are still very much abundant in Texas—and more associated gas is coming out of the shale oil wells. Production of associated natural gas from the Permian, the Eagle Ford, and the Bakken oil wells has surged over the past decade, the EIA said earlier this year. In the Permian, the gas-to-oil ratio has risen steadily from 34% of total production in 2014 to 40% in 2024. The rise was a result of pressure within the reservoir declining over time, and as more oil is brought to the surface, which allows more natural gas to be released from the geologic formation. This is a prolonged process, and the current trend suggests it will continue just as demand for natural gas continues expanding. It might not be such good news for pure-play oil producers, but it's definitely good news for those in gas. The export outlook is just as bright as the outlook for domestic demand. The biggest export markets for Texas-made LNG are Europe and Asia. In fact, the United States as a whole is the biggest LNG supplier to Europe. This is not about to change soon and the volumes of these exports are unlikely to be going down in any consistent way anytime soon. Europe may refuse to face facts, but it still very much needs natural gas to power its economies—and it doesn't want Russian gas. The only other source of comparable volumes of gas is the United States. Texas is set to continue breaking records. By Irina Slav for More Top Reads From this article on
