In response to France's Digital Services Tax (DST), the
Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) proposed additional
ad valorem duties of up to 100 percent on certain products from
France. The USTR issued a Section 301 Investigation Report on the
DST, concluding that the DST discriminates against U.S. companies,
is inconsistent with prevailing principles of tax policy, and is
unusually burdensome for affected U.S. companies. Members of our
International Trade Team explain these developments in our recent client alert.
