Original Note:
Tariffs are taxes on imported goods paid by importers at the time of import, not by consumers at the point of sale / sales tax. Tariffs may lead to higher prices, but are not imposed on consumers buying goods. Tariffs are applied before products reach retail stores. https://www.trade.gov/import-tariffs-fees-overview-and-resources
