## Tariff and trade changes

New tariffs, sanctions and regime changes in a source or sales market.
[See Tariff and trade changes in Revomo →](https://revomo.ai/contact/?source=marketplace&type=metric&artifact=tariffs-trade&name=Tariff+and+trade+changes&collection=cost-recovery)

### Why it matters

A tariff or a trade measure changes landed cost overnight and demand soon after. Tracking new measures by market keeps surcharges and pass-through ahead of the cost.

### Act when

Any new measure in a market you source from or sell into

Thresholds are set per business; the ones written as x and y are placeholders your team fills in.

### What it may signal

Landed cost jumps, demand shifts.
