U.S. Tariff Increases on European Vaults: What Businesses Need to Know

NEW TRUMP TARIFFS ON IMPORTS – GTS FREIGHT CO. FEE ADJUSTMENTS

Effective Immediately | President Trump’s 2025 Tariff Policy in Force

Critical Update for All GTS Freight Co. Customers

Following President Trump’s immediate imposition of new tariffs on imported goods (including European vaults, safes, and security storage systems), GTS Freight Co. will adjust fees to offset rising costs.

Key Actions Required:

  1. PAY ALL PENDING INVOICES BY APRIL 30, 2025 to avoid new surcharges.
  2. PRE-BOOK SHIPMENTS NOW for orders affected by tariffs (HTS Codes 8303.00.00, 7308.90.00).
  3. CONTACT OUR TEAM for expedited clearance options.

Why This Matters

  • New Tariffs: Up to 25% on EU-made vaults/steel components (per CNBC).
  • GTS Fee Increase: 10-15% surcharge on all affected imports after May 1, 2025.
  • Customs Delays Expected: Increased scrutiny at U.S. ports.

How to Avoid Higher Costs

Clear All Invoices by April 30 – No new fees if paid in full.
Switch to DDP Shipping Terms – Let GTS handle tariffs for predictable pricing.
Explore Domestic/NON-EU Suppliers – Reduce exposure to tariffs.


⚠️ Deadline: April 30, 2025
After this date, all unpaid invoices will automatically incur tariff-related surcharges. Act now to lock in current rates.
