For the EU a separate agreement applies a 15\u202fpercent rate on pharma patents. At the same time steel and aluminium tariffs remain at 50\u202fpercent, and the average US tariff burden on German machinery is up to 26\u202fpercent according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vdma.eu\/de\/usa\">VDMA survey<\/a>.

Here the operative mix matters: tariffs, sector exemptions, pricing agreements, location incentives. And the question of where it hits the margin of a German exporter.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top:64px;margin-bottom:20px;padding-top:16px;\">Mechanical Engineering: 26\u202fpercent average tariff burden, steel and aluminium derivatives as the focal point<\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wirtschaftsticker.com\/2026\/02\/us-zoelle-belasten-maschinenbau-exporte-sinken-2025-deutlich\/\">recent VDMA survey<\/a>, German mechanical engineering faces an average US tariff burden of 26\u202fpercent. That is surprisingly high because the media narrative puts the automotive sector in the spotlight. Cars benefit from the EU agreement\u2019s flat 15\u2011percent rate for vehicles. Many mechanical\u2011engineering products, however, fall under the separate 50\u2011percent duties on steel and aluminium derivatives. Orders fell by 6\u202fpercent in January\u202f2026, and the first\u2011half export figure for 2025 was down 3.4\u202fpercent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">The operational friction sits with the Mittelstand. The majority of VDMA members are small and medium\u2011sized enterprises that lack the personnel or capital to shift production globally. TRUMPF and other family\u2011run machine builders are weighing options such as price hikes, a US \u201cassembly\u2011light\u201d model, and partial substitution with non\u2011tariffed components. The VDMA has launched a series of lobbying trips to Washington, focusing on the steel and aluminium derivatives list, because that is where the industry\u2011political impact is most mis\u2011targeted.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top:64px;margin-bottom:20px;padding-top:16px;\">Pharma: 15\u2011percent protection for the EU, MFN agreements for the big players<\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">Trump\u2019s announced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/fact-sheets\/2026\/04\/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-bolsters-national-security-and-strengthens-u-s-supply-chains-by-imposing-tariffs-on-patented-pharmaceutical-products\/\">100\u2011percent tariff on patented pharmaceutical products<\/a> includes a special provision: imports from the EU, Japan, Korea, Switzerland and Liechtenstein are subject to a flat 15\u2011percent tariff line. Generics, biosimilars and active ingredients remain exempt for at least one year. Bayer, Merck\u202fKGaA and Boehringer\u202fIngelheim are therefore shielded from the harshest scenario, but they must either pass the 15\u2011percent surcharge onto US sales or offset it through volume negotiations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">Alongside the EU special line, the Trump Most\u2011Favoured\u2011Nation (MFN) model applies. It obliges participating pharma companies to offer US patients the lowest international price, in exchange for waiving the 100\u2011percent tariff. Industry reports say several large European and US firms have struck MFN price agreements with the administration. Big players with a global footprint can respond through price deals, US investments or existing negotiation channels, whereas specialised Mittelstand firms have fewer levers. That is where the gap emerges: smaller pharma companies have limited ability to offset tariff costs via location guarantees or direct agreements.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top:64px;margin-bottom:20px;padding-top:16px;\">Semiconductors: Trump subsidies outweigh the pressure from Trump tariffs<\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">In the semiconductor sector the Trump effect is asymmetrical. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.handelsblatt.com\/technik\/it-internet\/halbleiter-intel-meldet-milliardenverlust-und-gibt-plaene-fuer-fabrik-in-magdeburg-auf\/100143961.html\">Intel has scrapped its Magdeburg project<\/a>, originally a \u20ac30\u202fbillion investment with roughly 3\u202f000 planned jobs. The cancellation is not a pure Trump effect; it combines three strands: a demand slump in the foundry business, corporate restructuring with tighter capital discipline, and a US\u2011home\u2011market location priority that offers higher subsidies. Intel\u2019s role as a mandatory supplier to the US Department of Defense also plays a part. CEO Lip\u2011Bu\u202fTan cited weak customer demand and capital discipline as the reasons. For German suppliers the outcome is the same, regardless of which factor dominates.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">On the other hand, investments continue in Germany. The Infineon fab in Dresden is construction\u2011complete, and the TSMC fab on the same site is slated for a production start in 2027. The Mittelstand question in semiconductor supply therefore revolves less around tariff circumvention and more around linking into the clusters that remain in Germany. Suppliers tied to Magdeburg need an alternative anchor within 60\u202fdays, or the equipment and material pipeline for 2027 will be lost.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top:64px;margin-bottom:20px;padding-top:16px;\">What will decide the next 60 days operationally<\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">The 60\u2011day period is not a regulatory deadline but a planning window. Companies that only recalculate prices, delivery clauses, customs positions and US options in the autumn will fall into existing contract and budget cycles for 2027. Three actions are feasible within this timeframe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"><strong>Map the supply chain with concrete customs exposure per tariff line.<\/strong> A blanket 15\u202fpercent assumption overlooks the steel\u2011and\u2011aluminium derivative trap at 50\u202fpercent. A clean breakdown by HS\u2011code shows which product line actually loses margin and which can be replaced by non\u2011tariffed components.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"><strong>Calculate the US\u2011site option honestly.<\/strong> Bayer is reviewing it, Merck\u202fKGaA has negotiated. Mid\u2011size firms must work out their own volume threshold for a light\u2011assembly solution in the USA instead of shifting it reflexively. An option analysis takes one to two weeks; a reflexive standstill costs market share.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"><strong>Re\u2011align the semiconductor anchor.<\/strong> Suppliers with a Magdeburg link now need a connection to Dresden\u2011Infineon, Dresden\u2011TSMC or European alternative clusters such as ASML in Eindhoven. Without an anchor, pipeline security for equipment and material in 2027 is missing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\">German exports to the USA fell by 9.4\u202fpercent to \u20ac135.8\u202fbillion from January to November 2025, according to Destatis data. This is the lowest trade surplus since the pandemic year 2021. China has returned as the most important trading partner. Spring\u202f2026 will not decide every US deal, but it will determine which German mid\u2011size companies recalculate their customs, location and cluster options early enough.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top:64px;margin-bottom:20px;padding-top:16px;\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #e9ecef;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:8px;background:#f8f9fa;\">\n<summary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;text-align:left;\"><strong>Which German sectors are most affected by Trump 2.0?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding:14px 20px 18px;color:#495057;line-height:1.7;\">In spring 2026 the mechanical engineering sector carries the highest average burden at 26\u202fpercent VDMA average, driven by steel and aluminium derivative tariffs at 50\u202fpercent. Automotive benefits from the EU agreement\u2019s 15\u2011percent flat rate, pharma enjoys a EU special rule of 15\u202fpercent instead of 100, and semiconductors are primarily affected by the US subsidy pull, not by tariffs.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #e9ecef;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:8px;background:#f8f9fa;\">\n<summary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;text-align:left;\"><strong>What does the MFN price agreement mean for Bayer, Merck KGaA and Boehringer?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding:14px 20px 18px;color:#495057;line-height:1.7;\">The Most\u2011Favoured\u2011Nation rule obliges participating pharmaceutical groups to offer US patients at least the lowest international price.

Intel is also a mandatory supplier for the US Department of Defense, which raises the strategic priority of US sites. The original investment of 30\u202fbillion Euro and the 3\u202f000 planned jobs are now lost for Magdeburg.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #e9ecef;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:8px;background:#f8f9fa;\">\n<summary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;text-align:left;\"><strong>How should mid\u2011size mechanical engineering firms react in the next 60 days?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding:14px 20px 18px;color:#495057;line-height:1.7;\">Check tariff exposure per tariff position instead of calculating a flat industry rate. Know the share of steel and aluminium derivatives in your product mix, as those carry the 50\u2011percent peaks. Run a US\u2011light assembly scenario as an option, even without an immediate relocation. Document VDMA lobbying vehicles and association feedback for Washington.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #e9ecef;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:8px;background:#f8f9fa;\">\n<summary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;text-align:left;\"><strong>Which semiconductor options remain in Germany after the Magdeburg exit?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding:14px 20px 18px;color:#495057;line-height:1.7;\">The Infineon fab in Dresden is structurally complete, and the TSMC fab on the same site follows the plan for a 2027 production start.
