The U.S. has imposed tariffs on imports of one-kilo gold bars, according to a July 31 letter from Customs and Border Protection cited by the Financial Times.

The move could significantly affect Switzerland, the world’s largest gold refining hub, which exports large volumes of refined bullion to the U.S.
