CBP says it’s working closely with other agencies as the tariffs roll out.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is already collecting over $200 million per day in extra revenue as it enforces a massive new wave of tariffs under President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" plan.

"CBP has successfully implemented 13 tariff-related presidential actions during this Administration," a CBP spokesperson said in a statement to FOX Business. "Serving on America’s frontline, CBP strictly enforces all laws and Presidential directives to secure our economic sovereignty."

Using powers under the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), the Trump administration is targeting goods from dozens of countries, including China.

On April 3, the U.S. imposed a 25% tariff on all passenger vehicles and light trucks imported from any country, and on Saturday, a 10% global tariff took effect under IEEPA, with certain exclusions, CBP said.
