Higher US tariff rates to take effect in seven days: senior official

A senior White House official said Thursday that higher tariffs ordered by President Donald Trump on dozens of U.S. trade partners would go into effect on August 7.

The official said the delay was designed to ensure border and customs authorities have time to "implement" the new regime.
