Well a tariff is a tax on imported or foreign goods. example a tax on imported nuggets (danks) coming from say Mexico, or Amsterdam will be taxed by your local dealer say 60$-75$ a sack but American nuggets run about 50$ no higher for a doob-sack (optimo blunts haha)
A tariff may be either tax on imports orexports (trade tariff), or a list or schedule of prices for such things as rail service, bus routes, and electrical usage (electrical tariff, etc.).

The word comes from the Italian wordtariffa "list of prices, book of rates," which is derived from the Arabic ta'rif "to notify or announce."

A protective tariff serves two purposes:

  1. It collects tax revenue for the government.
  2. It protects industries by making foreign goods more expensive.
