Any goods being imported from another country may be subject to a tariff issued by the federal government.

Hope this helps!

The correct answer is a tariff.

A tariff is a tax on an imported good. The federal government usually implements tariffs in order to protect American businesses.

Tariffs make the price of foreign goods increase. This is supposed to make it so that foreign goods are most expensive then goods made in the US. This would make citizens more likely to buy goods from American businesses, as they would not have to pay this tariff.
