Depends on when the product is shipped. If there’s a part of the process of manufacturing that’s done in the US and TSMC isn’t inside a FTZ, then they have to pay tariffs for that step.
I mean, I don’t know their process. But production outside of foreign trade zones can subject a producer to tariffs before the final product is made. Just kind of depends on how they’re set up.
Tariffs are paid by the importer, this just sounds like tsmc is raising prices.
