US President Donald Trump has announced the cancellation of tariffs on British whisky imports after a high-profile four-day state visit by King Charles III and Queen Camilla. The official visit is seen as a diplomatic gesture and a noteworthy shift in transatlantic trade relations.

The decision to remove the tariffs came at the conclusion of the royal visit which took place from 27 April to 30 April 2026. The royal mission included engagements across Washington DC, Virginia and New Yor, meetings at the White House and a state banquet.
